The movie's first-time screenwriter Jason Lew and (co-producer) Bryce Dallas Howard attended New York University together and it was there that Lew first wrote the story as a play. Howard, who had acted in plays with Lew, got a peek at the story and encouraged him to write it as a screenplay.
Schuyler Fisk, who appears in this film, is the daughter of Sissy Spacek. Both this film and Badlands (1973), which Spacek appeared in, feature the music piece 'Gassenhauer' by Carl Orff.
Ron Howard originally planned to direct but had to drop out due to scheduling conflicts.
The film is dedicated to the memory of Dennis Hopper, Henry Hopper's father.
"Hiroshi Takahashi: As I write this letter, the ocean breeze feels cool on my skin. That very ocean is soon to be my grave. They tell me I will die a hero. That the safety and honor of my country will be the reward for my sacrifice. I pray they are right. My only regret in life is never telling you how I feel. I wish I were back home. I wish I were holding your hand. I wish I were telling you that I have loved you, and only you, since I was a boy. But I'm not. I see now that death is easy. It is love that is hard. As my plane dives, I will not see the face of my enemies. I will instead see your eyes, like black rocks frozen in rainwater. They tell us that we must scream, "Banzai," as we plunge into our target. I will instead whisper your name. And in death, as in life, I will remain forever yours."
"Hiroshi Takahashi: We have so little time to say the things we mean."
