Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
1988 saw two films titled The Big Blue released—Besson's diving epic and this micro-budget crime drama. Neither knew of the other until post-production.
Amy Hill, playing the Computer Operator, would later become a familiar face on Seinfeld and Grandma Kim on Kim's Convenience—her early, skeletal role here is almost unrecognizable.
