TRIVIA AND POPULAR DIALOGUES

Trivia

The club featured in the film was actually a small business office building next to McDonald's in Queens, New York that was completely converted to the look in the film by production designer Mel Bourne. It is now abandoned, and remains unused to this day.

David Caruso left NYPD Blue (1993) in order to film this movie, and pursue a full-time film career.

David Caruso was paid $1 million for appearing in this film, which he made in the hiatus between his first and short-lived second season of NYPD Blue (1993).

In the opening, when Jimmy (David Caruso) walks down the same street to his house, it's the same street as in the original film, Kiss of Death (1947).

In an interview, Nicolas Cage said he thought of Little Junior's personality as "a big horrible baby".

Popular Dialogues

"Little Junior Brown: I have an acronym for myself. Know what it is? B.A.D. B.A.D... Balls, Attitude, Direction. You should give yourself an acronym... 'cause it helps you visualize your goals. Jimmy Kilmartin: How about F.A.B.? Fucked At Birth. Little Junior Brown: No good. Too negative."

"Jimmy Kilmartin: Whatever doesn't kill you makes you stronger, right? Little Junior Brown: Whatever don't...? Jimmy Kilmartin: Whatever doesn't kill you makes you stronger. Little Junior Brown: Whatever don't kill you makes... I like that."
