Handlung
WUSSTEST DU SCHON:
- WissenswertesDuring the last week of principal photography in Cleveland, production was briefly halted on two separate occasions due to exchanges of gunfire in neighborhoods near the set.
- PatzerThe bulk of this story is set in the early/mid '80s. However, Wershe Sr. tells his son that he is seeing someone about a "40 Cal". The .40 S&W cartridge debuted on January 17, 1990.
- Zitate
Richard Wershe Sr.: Straight talk? Your mother and I. We didn't plan on Dawn.
Richard Wershe Sr.: We didn't plan on you either, but in the end things worked out.
Rick Wershe Jr.: Dawn is a junkie, I'm shitting into a bag. Well that turned out well.
Richard Wershe Sr.: What can I say, you know? I'm a glass-half-full kind of guy.
- Crazy CreditsThe end credits are preceded by a brief summary of Rick and his family's fate, as well as that of Rick's criminal associates and the police officers he helped put in prison. There is also a short audio tape of the real Rick speaking about his prison time and hopes for the future when he leaves.
