Director Nigel Finch died of AIDS shortly after completing this, his last film.
Early in the film, there is a shot of a sign being posted that said "We homosexuals plead with our people to please help maintain peaceful and quiet conduct on the streets of the Village." This was an actual sign which was prominently and publicly posted outside the original Stonewall Inn in early summer 1969, about one month prior to the Stonewall Riots began.
Several film clips are seen and sound clips are heard of Judy Garland, who died June 22, 1969, just six days before the Stonewall Riots started on June 28, 1969.

"Princess Ernestine: La Miranda, girl, why do you always put yourself though this? La Miranda: Why, Princess Ernestine? It's for the sheer, irresistible goddamn glamour of it all."
"La Miranda: See, there's as many Stonewall stories as there's gay queens in New York, and that's a shit load of stories, baby. Everywhere you go in Manhattan, or America, or the entire damn world, you're gonna here some new legend. Well this is my legend honey, okay? My Stonewall legend."
