Continuity mistake: When Geena Davis is meeting the old man at the bar in the train station, when the young guy talks to her, she looks over at him, and you can clearly see a boom mike in the shot which stays there until the scene changes.

Trivia: In an interview with GQ, Samuel L. Jackson said he was unable to secure an audition for this film because the studio told him the character was supposed to be white. He secured the part after running into Geena Davis and director Renny Harlin at a Christmas party. Jackson told Harlin that the studio wouldn't let him have the part, and Harlin cast him on the spot.
