What's left behind the scenes

  • One of the prototypes for the character of Dennehy was a real Los Angeles police officer, Joseph Wambaugh, a model law enforcement officer and the author of a bestseller.
  • James Woods quit smoking right before filming began. When it was time to shoot the scene with a cigarette in his hand, the actor suggested simply taking a lit cigarette from someone else, so he wouldn't have to light and smoke one himself.
