Best Motion Picture | 1984 | Ross
When director Wim Wenders completed his work, the company Orion was so dissatisfied, that the studio Zoetrope was ordered to re-write and re-shoot nearly the whole movie. Two different versions were produced, but only the second released. According to Wenders the first version, which was finished, is lost.
Final cinema film of Elisha Cook Jr.
The first shoot of the film co-starred Ronee Blakley and Brian Keith in the roles ultimately played by Marilu Henner and Peter Boyle. Director Wim Wenders was married to Blakely at the time of the first shoot. By the time the second version was shot a year-and-a-half later, Wim Wenders had divorced Blakely and her part was recast.
Actors Marilu Henner and Frederic Forrest were married during the production but were divorced afterwards in 1983.
Elisha Cook Jr., who played Wilmer Cook in John Huston's 1941 film, The Maltese Falcon (1941) (which was based on Dashiell Hammett book of the same name), plays Eli the Taxi Driver in this film.
"Hammett: I was sure I heard you retired. Doc Fallon: I heard you stopped drinkin'. Hammett: I guess we were both wrong."
"Doc Fallon: You know what my problem is? I'm a halfway honest man in a nine-tenths dishonest world. What's your problem? Hammett: Suicide. [takes a drink] Doc Fallon: My advice? Don't hesitate."
