Rated BBFC 15 by the British Board of Film Censors.
Originally made in 1952 by the director Richard Fleischer for a cost of $230,000. The 1990 version, directed, scripted and shot by Peter Hyams, reportedly cost 100 times that amount at $21 million. The large budget apparently went into the breathtaking stuntwork and impressive technical support turned in by the crew.
Peter Hyams is one of the few mainstream directors in addition to Josef Von Sternberg who doubles as his own cinematographer. Narrow Margin Reviews: "...Hackman is a resourceful actor..."
