TRIVIA AND POPULAR DIALOGUES

Trivia

The last film where Laurence Fishburne was credited as Larry.

One of the pictures on Carver's criminal family tree chart is of director Bill Duke.

The rhymes that 'Lawrence Fishburne''s character recites, such as "The jungle creed says that the strong must feed on any prey at hand..." are lyrics taken from the record 'Reflections' by best-selling black author 'Iceberg Slim'. Bill Duke, who is a great fan of Iceberg Slim's work, wrote a screenplay of his autobiography "Pimp" which never made it to production.

Both main stars of this film played thugs in the Death Wish franchise. Jeff Goldblum appeared in Death Wish (1974) while Laurence Fishburne was in Death Wish II (1982).

The nameplates of two of the Representatives at the subcommittee hearing at the end read "Bojan Bazelli" and "Pamela Warner" - references to director of photography Bojan Bazelli and production designer Pamela B. Warner.

Popular Dialogues

"John Hull: The jungle creed says the strongest feed / on any prey that it can / And I was branded beast at every feast / before I ever became a man."

"John Hull: Gerry, what's the difference between a black man and a nigger? Carver: What? [John Hull punches Gerald Carver in the stomach] John Hull: The nigger's the one that would even think about telling you."
