Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaMany of the film's prison scenes were filmed at the old Hamilton County Jail in Cincinnati, Ohio. The Jail, also known as the "Cincinnati Workhouse", had been permanently closed prior to the location filming of the movie. It had been built during the Civil War to house enemy troops and was still in use by Hamilton county and Cincinnati area police agencies as a jail as late as the 1970s. It was closed due to being "inhumane, cruel and unusual" by modern jail standards.
- GoofsAt the end of the film, one of the bad detectives goes to prison and is marched into the middle of the general population. No prison in the United States allows former police officers to be sent into the main prison; such persons are always sent directly to protective custody.
- Quotes
Kate Rainwood: [Kate is visiting Virgil in prison] I'm here because we don't know what else to do. It's like they haunt Jimmie. And after they came to the house... we need your help. I mean, Jimmie's already introduced me to Malcolm, but he can only do so much.
Virgil Cane: Those assholes have been riding high so long they think the only thing that can take them down is kryptonite. Of course, they are peabrained, dickless shitheads.
[Kate laughs]
Virgil Cane: Which is definitely in our favor.
[laughs]
Virgil Cane: Definitely!
Kate Rainwood: You've been hoping for something like this, haven't you?
Virgil Cane: [smiling] Let's just say it makes my decade.
[turns serious]
Virgil Cane: I'll get exactly the information that you need and I'll reach out to you real soon.
Kate Rainwood: [impressed] You're just like Jimmie described you... a schemer and a charmer.
[Virgil smiles]
Kate Rainwood: Thanks for everything you did for him, Virgil.
[they stand up and shake hands]
