To play youth thug Mick o'Brien, actor Sean Penn wanted to have his perfect teeth filed down and capped with ugly tops and have "maybe a few cracked ones" but Penn's mother, a dentist's daughter, intervened, ruling that "ruining perfectly good teeth is definitely going too far!".
Sean Penn broke his ankle during the scene where he runs through the woods after escaping the reform school. Production had to be shut down for eight weeks because of his injury.
Real-life reformatory supervisors and about thirty real-life reformatory inmates featured in the film as actors, extras and background artists.
The photos used during the opening credits were the real-life photos of Sean Penn and the other actors as children. According to Rick Rosenthal's commentary on the uncut DVD edition, he is still in possession of these pictures.
Debut feature film of actors Jason Gedrick (uncredited), Clancy Brown, Alan Ruck and actress Ally Sheedy.
"Ramon Herrera: [to Paco] Do you know what goes on in here? Time stands still. On the outside everyone is getting on with their lives; working, making money, getting laid, all that good shit. Aww, look at your bad self. I was into that gang shit for half of my life. It's dumb, fuckin', nowhere shit!"
"Gene Daniels: My name is Gene Daniels. Call me Mr. Daniels, I like that, don't call me anything else."
