Quotes
Mickey Morrissey:
He is the prince of fucking darkness.
Goofs
Concannon states that the trial is due to start on February 19th. The year is presumably 1982, as that is the year written on Concannon's check to Laura. February 19, 1982 was a Friday. However, when Judge Hoyle is speaking to Concannon and Galvin before the trial, he states the trial will begin "next Thursday." (This error may be deliberate.)
Alternate Versions
NBC edited 33 minutes from this film for its 1985 network television premiere.
