- TriviaWas supposed to get a wide release, but ultimately ended up as limited release in 5 theaters.
- GoofsAt the end of the trial, a reporter said the DA announced he would seek the death penalty. In fact, the DA would have had to serve notice prior to the trial that he was going to seek the death penalty and the jury would have had to been qualified for a death penalty case, i.e. jury members must agree they would return the verdict of death if they felt it was warranted.
- Quotes
Ben Nickerson: Who the hell wears a Montalvo? Never heard of it.
Detective Hollis: We searched every retailer in Shreveport. None of them have ever carried a Montalvo. They stopped making it in 1999.
Ben Nickerson: That tells how popular they were.
Detective Riddick: Maybe the guy was from Italy.
Ben Nickerson: Right, this has all the earmarks of a mafia hit.
Lieutenant Merchant: What about a tourist, you know, looking for some late-night action?
Ben Nickerson: [sighs] Maybe. I don't know. This smells like an evidence box stored next to all those other evidence boxes of unsolved homicides. I hate that smell. I really do.
