Trivia
Sharon Stone met Muhammad Ali when she was 17. She was in the Miss Pennsylvania pageant and Ali was in Hershey, Pennsylvania when Stone was there, and she met him. And then Ali called her father and offered her a part in this film. The boxing champ predicted movie stardom while her father was skeptical. Stone's father said ''She is not going to be in film.'' Ali told her father ''You may think that she is not, but she is. You cannot hide that girl under a bushel basket. Her light is too bright."

Goofs
Outside the Armed Forces induction center in Houston, a naval officer is wearing summer whites with a khaki combination cover. That headpiece should have a white covering, not khaki, which was intended for use with summer khaki uniform.
