Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
This was Ray Liotta's final completed film — he passed away in 2022 during post-production, making Lowell's desperate paternal failures eerily prophetic.
The catalytic converter heist wasn't Hollywood invention — platinum thefts spiked 4000% during the 2020s, making this '92-set crime bizarrely ahead of its time.
