- TriviaThis film was completed in 1991 by Penta Pictures, as part of a three picture service deal with 20th Century-Fox that also included Folks! (1992) and Man Trouble (1992). Based on the poor performance of the other films, 20th chose not to release it, and the film was then shelved for two years until it was picked up by Miramax Films for release in 1993.
- GoofsKathleen Turner's character says that all railways in the world have the same gauge which is absolutely not true. Examples: Spain - 5' 6"; Ireland - 5' 3" and 3'; India - 5' 6", 2'6" + 1m; Peru - 3'; Portugal - 5' 5 9/16" (1.1665m) + 1 m; Russia - 5'; East Africa - 1m; Nigeria - 3'6"; Sierra Leone - 2'6"; South Africa - 3'6"; Burma - 1m; Ceylon 5'6" + 2'6".

Ruth Matthews: We all go a little crazy sometimes, Doctor.
Jake Beerlander: Yes, Ms. Matthews, but most of us come back.
Featured review
Pass on it. If only I had
There is no doubt that somewhere out there there is someone who loved this film, who adores it and watches it all the time, fed up by the bad reviews. That person is obviously not me, as I can see how this mind-boggling movie could have a following like that, but I positively hated it.
I rented it because of Tommy Lee Jones and Kathleen Turner, and the movie taught me a valuable lesson: listen to the critics and DON'T rent a movie that looks bad because of two stars in it. Both are given horrible, underdeveloped, unlikeble characters and asked to turn them into lovable, realistic characters. They failed miserable, not because they can't, but because they won't. The film is THAT bad.
Which ever studio exec who green lighted this project must've been high, or drunk. Or both. The story makes no sense whatsoever and is immensely boring. If you are a fan of either Turner or Jones, skip this one and instead see The Fugitive or War of The Roses again.
