Quiz
Due to budget limits and to add to the realism to the movie, the director and producers chose to use real news clips from the Cleveland area from the actual events that took place in the movie.

Blooper
Danny turns down a beer at his girlfriend's apartment and asks if she has a soda. In the '70s, nobody in Cleveland (or northeast Ohio) would even know what a soda was; they would have asked her for a pop. Even non-natives quickly adopted this term when referring to a soft drink; occasionally a soft drink might be called a coke but never a soda. The term soda referred to carbonated water used in a mixed drink.

Citazioni
Danny Greene: Mr. MacLeish; Danny Green.
Mr. MacLeish: I know who ya are. You're the tool who sent me this... Four thousand to unload each vessel? Are you outta your fucking mind? The price is two thousand. We have a contract and you're going to honor it or I'm going to lock out your union. Is that clear ya fuckin' potato eater?
Danny Greene: Potato eater? Seeing as how the potato was the only source of nutrition in Ireland for 300 years and half the population including my ancestors died in the great famine, I'd say that term is insensitive. Speaking of culinary tastes, Mr. MacLeish, you're Scottish aren't you? Let's talk about Haggis. Haggis is seasoned lard stuffed into a sheep's colon. So I may be a potato eater Mr. MacLeish but I don't eat fat out of a sheep's asshole... What do you think of the new carpet?

Ray Stevenson Carries It

Ray Stevenson carries this otherwise amateurish production into the realm of almost great.

None of the side characters get enough time to shine, thanks to a script that should have been more polished before making it.

The story is interesting enough to make a great film - it just needed someone like Scorsese to bring life to it.

Still, Ray Stevenson is so great as Danny Greene - that the thing is watchable.

Val Kilmer is probably the worst part of it, though I hate to say it.

It is from the time in his career where his passion was long gone, but he still needed paychecks.

Walken is shamefully wasted.
