The Vietnamese government wouldn't allow Oliver Stone to film on location due to the script's unflattering depiction of the Viet Cong.
According to Oliver Stone, he held auditions for the lead role, and Hiep Thi Le (who ended up as the lead role) was pushed into doing the audition by one of her friends.
Oliver Stone dedicated the film to his mother, just as he had dedicated Wall Street (1987) to his father.
Third part of Oliver Stone's Vietnam trilogy. The other two are Platoon (1986) and Born on the Fourth of July (1989).
