The real person, on which the character of Dan Mahowny is based, is now a consultant for a company that investigates fraud.
The character's name was changed to Dan Mahowny, in part because his real name (Brian Molony) was very similar to the name of the Canadian Prime Minister at the time (Brian Mulroney).
The movie's budget was about $10 million, which was also roughly the amount that the real person on whom Dan Mahowny is based stole from the bank for which he worked.
While this is not a remake, The Borrower (1984) was based on the same true story.
Number 7 on Roger Ebert's ten best films of 2003
"Psychologist: How would you rate the thrill you got from gambling, on a scale of one to 100? Dan Mahowny: Um... hundred. Psychologist: And what about the biggest thrill you've ever had outside of gambling? Dan Mahowny: Twenty. Psychologist: Twenty. How do you feel about living the rest of your life with a max of twenty? Dan Mahowny: Ok. Twenty's ok."
"Dan Mahowny: How much for the bags? Car Rental Girl: They're free for customers. Dan Mahowny: Great, can I have one? Car Rental Girl: Well, you're not a customer, so... Dan Mahowny: Okay... how much for the bags?"
