What's left behind the scenes

  • The film is based on the novel of the same name by Swiss writer Isabelle Holland. However, while the hero of her book was homosexual, in the film adaptation he became simply a lonely, misunderstood man.
  • Mel Gibson decided to play the role of Justin McLeod himself only after failing to find a suitable candidate among other actors, who turned down the offer one by one. This was partly due to difficulties with project funding.
  • Filming period: August 3 – October 9, 1992.
  • Masterful special effects makeup, transforming half of Mel Gibson's face into a single, monstrous burn, was created by one of America's greatest makeup effects masters – Greg Cannom.
  • The poem about airplanes that Mel Gibson's character gives Chuck to read is “High Flight” by American poet and pilot John Gillespie Magee Jr.
  • The scene where Chuck and Justin stand high on a mountain watching the water was filmed on Bradbury Mountain in Maine. Due to the steep slope leading down to the water, this area was protected by a safety fence for many years, which was removed for the duration of filming and then returned to its place.
  • Mel Gibson decided to play the role of Justin McLeod himself only after being unable to find a suitable candidate among other actors who had, one by one, declined the offer. This was also partly due to difficulties in securing funding for the project.
  • The poem about airplanes that Mel Gibson's character has Chuck read is "High Flight" by American poet and pilot John Gillespie Magee.
  • The poem about airplanes that Mel Gibson's character asks Chuck to read is "High Flight" by American poet and pilot John Gillespie Magee.
