- TriviaThis was a personal project for McQueen, as he made it to prove to many people that he could act. But Warner Bros. could not figure out how to distribute the film and decided not to release it domestically. It had a very brief theatrical release in New York a few years after McQueen's death.
- Quotes
Dr. Thomas Stockmann: You want me to keep quiet.
Peter Stockmann: That's not what I said.
Dr. Thomas Stockmann: You don't want me to say anything to the public. We may be talking about typhoid.
Peter Stockmann: I said before, they're not that convinced there is any actual danger.
Dr. Thomas Stockmann: My report is based on fact. You and the Administration insisted on building that water supply where it is to save money. You made a mistake! Now you're afraid to admit it.

Featured review
Excellent despite its press.
Not the usual Steve McQueen fare for sure, but look beyond trying to see the actor in "The Magnificent Seven" or the "Great Escape" and you'll see an excellent movie with a message.
Watch it on a cold night with your wife/girlfriend when you don't have to get up early the next day.
