Trivia
Many of the Tasmanian locations featured in the film are part of the actual escape route Alexander Pearce and his fellow convicts took in 1822. The cell scenes in the film were shot in the old Rozelle Hospital in Sydney, which was once an asylum for the clinically insane and for Irish political prisoners. See more »Goofs
Continuity: The position of the hood on Pearce's head when is to be hanged changes between when it is first put on (covering down to the bridge of his nose) and when he takes the sacrament (down to his forehead). See more »Quotes
