TRIVIA AND POPULAR DIALOGUES

Trivia

During the production, the film's star Lance Henriksen presented Director Nicholas Gyeney with the portrait James Cameron had painted of him as The Terminator (1984) before casting Arnold Schwarzenegger in the role.

After production, Director Nicholas Gyeney and Lance Henriksen got matching tattoos to commemorate the film and their passion for it.

During shooting, a coat rack was accidentally left out of a shot. Much later, after wrapping the scene, the crew noticed the continuity error. A coat rack was later added during post-production to correct the mistake, marking the film's only digital effect.

The script references Dr. Jason Pyatt's deceased father. This is a direct reference to Writer, Director Nicholas Gyeney's own life. His father died when he was just 12 years old.

From concept to completion, The Penitent Man took only five months to produce. That is four months from beginning the script, to financing, to production, to post-production.

Popular Dialogues

"Dr. Jason Pyatt: What if somebody went back and killed Hitler? Mr. Darnell: What if Hitler *was* killed? Dr. Jason Pyatt: What? Mr. Darnell: What if originally Hitler was killed, and someone went back and changed it. Kept him alive. To us, we would remember it as our history, as if it always happened. Many believe that time eventually corrects itself. If Hitler was dead, someone would likely step up and take his place. Thank God, mercifully, we'll never have to test that theory."

"Mr. Darnell: [withholding time travel techniques] This is where I stop. I have given you the gun, let me keep the bullets."
