When he was filming the fight scene at the testimonial dinner, director Ulu Grosbard never informed the extras that there would be a fight. When it occurred, their reactions were genuine.
To prepare for his role as Detective Tom Spellacy, Robert Duvall went on the night beat with real-life Los Angeles area homicide detectives. Duvall also went on a stakeout, witnessed the administration of a lie detector test, and visited a real murder victim crime scene.
During the title sequence, director Ulu Grosbard surrounded Robert De Niro with three real priests.
