TRIVIA AND POPULAR DIALOGUES

Trivia

Writer Brian Helgeland first saw the original Man on Fire (1987) when he was renting videos in the late '80s. He walked in to the video store where Quentin Tarantino was working and asked what was good. Tarantino recommended "Man on Fire".

Most of the scenes between Denzel Washington and Christopher Walken were completely improvised.

Denzel Washington was so impressed with Dakota Fanning's acting that he'd watch her and forget he was in the scene.

Denzel Washington was cast because of a trip to a doctor. He ran into director Tony Scott in the waiting room of a medical office and the two started chatting. Scott had not seen Washington in person since they worked together on Crimson Tide (1995). Scott happened to see Dakota Fanning in I Am Sam (2001) the night before and seeing him made Scott think of using them together.

The kitchen scene between Creasy and Pita, where she asked him about concubines, was mostly ad-libbed. It started when they "accused" each other of smiling.

Popular Dialogues

"Rayburn: [refering to Creasy to Miguel Manzano in the Agency for Federal Investigation Headquarters] A man can be an artist... in anything, food, whatever. It depends on how good he is at it. Creasy's art is death. He's about to paint his masterpiece."

"Elderly Man: In the church, they say to forgive. Creasy: Forgiveness is between them and God. It's my job to arrange the meeting."
