Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaJohn Cassavetes was going to direct the film in the 1980s with 'Sean Penn' in the lead but the project could not be completed before Cassavetes died.
- GoofsJoey gets out of his Cadillac holding his car keys, but the car's warning beeper signifies that the keys are still in the ignition.
- Alternate versionsThe film was released straight to video in Holland. This version has no strong language whatsoever. Every swearword etc. has been badly replaced with milder versions, probably not by the actors themselves.

Featured review
I really appreciated this unique and interesting movie
I found my initial disturbance of these characters living way too close to the gutter, amazingly moved to an affection and an eyeopening awareness. The deep emotional pains of these characters are obvious, and yet presented in such a tender way, one can bear and become intrigued to look into this side of life and be moved, touched and understand. The result an enriching trip.
Sean Penn's scenes are always amazing, but there are at least 3 that make the movie worth seeing alone. One scene where he speaks for the first time to his unknown 9year old daughter, one where he speaks of love being SO difficult and one when he has been confined to a straight jacket. This character's portrayal is so beautiful and unforgettable.
John Travota too portrays an unforgettable character and performance.
I cant help wondering what was the childhood to produce these people as they are, a young 9year gives a hint.
