Отличная работа Джоди Фостер.

To prepare for the role she was cast, Jodie Foster attended meetings of rape support groups and read stories of rape experiences.

The film's original title was "Reckless Endangerment", which is the charge the accused rapists initially plea-bargain their convictions down to.

According Jodie Foster in her interview in Boffo! Tinseltown's Bombs and Blockbusters, producer Stanley R. Jaffe felt she was "not sexy enough" for the role and wanted to cast another actress.
He felt that 24-year-old Jodie Foster did not have the right talent for the role.

Upon seeing a pre-screening of the film, Jodie Foster thought her performance as Sarah Tobias was so awful that she immediately began preparing for and taking the GRE's for graduate school.
She was prepared to leave her film career behind and focus on academia...until she won the Academy Award for her performance.

Brian De Palma was originally assigned to direct the movie.

Kelly McGillis was offered the role of Sarah Tobias, but having survived a violent sexual assault in 1982 by two men who broke into her apartment, she declined the role and instead fought for the part of Kathryn Murphy.
