Anecdotes
The 62-year old Clint Eastwood (with the help of a safety belt) actually did hang six stories above the ground on the ledge scene, although stuntmen did the jump and the fall onto the fire escape.

Gaffes
Lilly's gown during the party scene would be inappropriate for a female Secret Service agent, as it would prevent her from performing her duties should there be an attempt on the President's life. In those situations female agents instead wear dress pants and more practical shoes. (With the gown, there is also the problem of where to hide the service weapon.)

Citations
Frank Horrigan: [over the phone] I want you to give yourself up.
Mitch Leary: So I can live a long and fruitful life?
Frank Horrigan: Oh, we can work something out.
Mitch Leary: [laughs] Jesus, Frank, don't fucking lie to me. I have a rendezvous with death, and so does the President, and so do you, Frank, if you get too close to me.
Frank Horrigan: You have a rendezvous with my ass, motherfucker!

Versions alternatives
The original UK cinema and video releases were cut by 8 secs (10 secs for video) by the BBFC to heavily edit shots of Al being suffocated with a plastic bag, some bloody gunshot impacts, Sally's head being beaten against a wall, and to remove the neck-breaks of Sally's flatmate. The cuts were fully waived in 2008 for the Blu-ray.

Underrated Thriller

Quite simply a well-made, well-written and wonderfully acted movie. Eastwood is classic as grizzled Secret Service Agent Frank Horrigan and Rene Russo

holds her own as partner (and love interest) Lilly Raines. But the movie's

greatness rests on the shoulders of John Malkovich as "Booth". He captures

this character's rage and hatred, as well as his humanity oddly enough.

Personally I think this was his best performance and should have received an

Oscar for it (But I loved Tommy Lee Jones in The Fugitive as well that year). Overall a great movie to see you want to peek into an assassin's mind and be

on the edge of your seat the whole way through. Enjoy!!
