Screenwriter J. Michael Straczynski first learned of the story of Christine Collins from an unnamed source at Los Angeles City Hall. The source had stumbled across case files regarding the Wineville Chicken Coop Murders amongst other discarded documents scheduled for destruction. Straczynski took the files and became obsessed with the case, doing extensive research over the course of a year. He tried to make it into a television project, but never found a solid way to do that. Virtually every event depicted in this movie appears as cited in legal documents, with dialogue often taken verbatim from court transcripts. Straczynski wrote his first draft of the screenplay in only eleven days.
Clint Eastwood agreed to direct the same afternoon he read the script.
The title refers to a European folk legend. Supposedly, fairies, elves, trolls, or even the Devil would occasionally steal young children from their cradles, and leave a false child, a "changeling", in its place. The changeling would grow sick and die, or exhibit bad behavior as it grew up, while the real child would supposedly become the slave of those who took it, and would never be seen again by its parents. The "changeling" legend was sometimes used to explain infant deaths or disorders such as mental disability or autism in children.
Hilary Swank and Reese Witherspoon lobbied for the role of Christine Collins. Clint Eastwood cast Angelina Jolie at the suggestion of producer Ron Howard, who noted that Jolie's "look" would fit best with the time period.
Clint Eastwood said in the DVD extras that part of the reason why he cast Angelina Jolie is that she is a mother, so she knows what it would feel like if one of her kids was kidnapped.
"[last lines] Christine Collins: Three boys made a run for it that night, detective, and if one got out, then maybe either or both of the other two did too. Maybe Walter's out there having the same fears that he did. Afraid to come home and identify himself, or afraid to get in trouble. But either way, it gives me something I didn't have before today. Detective Lester Ybarra: What's that? Christine Collins: Hope."
"Christine Collins: I used to tell Walter, "Never start a fight... but always finish it." I didn't start this fight... but by God, I'm going to finish it."
