Davis (Steve Martin) is based on real-life aggressive action-film producer Joel Silver.
The scene where Mack is nearly killed by a bus was taken from writer and director Lawrence Kasdan's own life.
Randle Mell, who portrays the Alley Baron, the derelict that Claire (Mary McDonnell) runs past while jogging in the back alley, is McDonnell's husband in real life.
The show-business trade paper Variety stated that "the Steve Martin character, who whines, 'Nobody in this town will admit that a producer is an artist' is a wicked caricature of action pic maker Joel Silver."
The picture was nominated for an Academy Award in 1992 for Best Original Screenplay for Meg Kasdan and Lawrence Kasdan, but it lost out to Callie Khouri for Thelma & Louise (1991).
"Davis: That's part of your problem: you haven't seen enough movies. All of life's riddles are answered in the movies."
"Davis: The point is there's a gulf in this country; an ever-widening abyss between the people who have stuff, and the people who don't have shit. It's like this big hole in the ground, as big as the fucking Grand Canyon, and what's come pouring out is an eruption of rage, and the rage creates violence, and the violence is real, Mack. Nothing's gonna make it go away, until someone changes something, which is not going to happen. And you may not like it, even I may not like it, but I can't pretend it isn't there because that it is a lie, and when art lies, it becomes worthless. So I gotta keep telling the truth, even if it scares the shit out of me, like it scares the shit out of you. Even if it means some motherfucker can blow a big hole in my leg for a watch, and I'm gonna walk with a fucking limp for the rest of my life and call myself lucky."
