Anecdotes
The movie was conceived with Bob Hoskins as Ronald Christopher "Buster" Edwards, but the filmmakers decided he'd played that sort of part in Le long vendredi saint (1980) and Mona Lisa (1986). Phil Collins was cast instead after director David Green saw his performance in Miami Vice (1984). David Jason was also considered for the role of Buster at one point.

Gaffes
In the opening scenes, when Buster walks off wearing a new suit he has just stolen, a Vespa P range motor scooter is visible. That model was introduced in 1977.

Générique farfelu

Buster

Singer Collins stars in this simple film about a thief who successfully pulls off the biggest train robbery in history, who then decides to start a new life in Acapulco with his wife June (Walters). Well matched stars in lovely paced yarn with Oscar nominated tunes from Collins ("Two Hearts").
