What's left behind the scenes
- To realistically portray the world of “leather” bars frequented by gay masochists, the filmmakers, including William Friedkin and Al Pacino themselves, visited such bars in New York.
- Filming was accompanied by protests from LGBTQ+ activists who disrupted the production in every way possible – thousands of them chanted slogans, whistled, and shouted, making location shooting impossible.
- William Friedkin initially refused the director's chair, but later changed his mind.
- Friedkin originally intended to shoot the film in black and white.
- The initial screenings of the film were extremely negative.
- The film's producer, Jerry Weintraub, bought the rights to adapt Gerald Walker's novel of the same name in the year of its publication, despite the book not being a commercial success.
- The film had significant problems getting a rating. Ultimately, Friedkin managed to secure an 'R' rating, which wasn't particularly successful commercially.
