When Kiefer Sutherland first moved to Los Angeles, he shared an apartment with Robert Downey Jr. for over a year.
Kiefer Sutherland starred in two movies, this, and Flashback (1990), whose plot and soundtrack is 1960s hippie centric. Both movies have a song by the 1960s hippie group Canned Heat.
Coincidentally, Mariette Hartley appeared in the episode All Our Yesterdays (1969), in the third and final season of the series - in 1969.
Bruce Dern plays Keifer Sutherland's father. Dern turned down the role of the father in Ordinary People and Lucien in A Time to Kill. Both roles were later accepted by Keifer's father, Donald Sutherland.
The movie's soundtrack consists of original period rock. However, this also includes a notable re-recording of The Youngbloods' classic song "Get Together", performed by the group's lead singer Jesse Colin Young.
