Trivia:

In one of the hospital Security Ward scenes, where the patients have a pick up game of basketball going on while Terence is in his body cast, 'Robert Urich''s character makes the comment that Larry Bird doesn't do sixty percent success with his free throws. That same year, in the Premiere Episode "Promised Land" and during at least the opening credits of the show's first season, his title character from "Spenser: For Hire" would look on as Larry Bird and the Celtics played a Game at Boston Garden.

Goofs:

Crew or equipment visible: At the start when the firemen blast Terry Lynch out of the burning window, you can see the wig come off the stuntman as he falls toward the parked car and after he hits the car, you can see it again.

Quotes:

Jimmy Lynch:My brother ain't no drunk. He's my blood.

A chilling story of a man, his brother's broken back and Kim Cattrall..

What an epic movie this was...as a youth i was very interested in the central theme in this film, that of social disobedience. What do you do when your brother breaks his back while saving a young child from a burning building, and the state refuses to pay for his hospitalization..If you're Timothy Hutton there is only one answer..take up with Kim Cattrall and cover the town with grafitti. And not just any grafitti...Grafitti which scandalizes the mayor. The ending is as thrilling as it gets, which along with a Paul Sorvino Cameo and the generous usage of a stunning motorcycle with side car brought this reviewer to his knees...A must for motorcycle with sidecar enthusiasts and Spencer For Hire afficianados...
