The period of principal photography on this picture was a production shoot in 1983 that ran for about seven weeks from early October to late November in the same year. Of the seven weeks of principal photography one week was spent in New York City and the other six weeks were spent in Dallas, Texas.
Director Paul Bartel said that character of "Lois Thorndyke", who was played in the film by actress Nancy Allen, was based on heroines from Frank Capra pictures as well as the character "Lois Lane" from the ''Superman'' comic books.
The production was able to stay under budget by hiring a non-union film crew in the state of Texas, USA and by using less expensive Dallas locations to stand in for New York City according to an article published in the 29th February 1984 issue of show-business trade-paper 'The Hollywood Reporter'. Writer-director Paul Bartel commented that the advantages of Dallas were "both economic and aesthetic".
The name of the tabloid newspaper in New York City was ''The Informer''. Its former name was ''The Enforcer''.
