Fun Facts:

  • The Las Vegas scenes were filmed at the legendary Sands Hotel immediately prior to its demolition in late 1996. When the production team heard about the city's intentions to raze the historic landmark, they immediately scheduled a multiple camera setup to take advantage of the rare event, which is what you actually see in the movie.

  • Colm Meaney's key chain has a Star Trek Communicator ornament on it, a reference to his role as Chief Miles O'Brien on Star Trek: The Next Generation and Star Trek: Deep Space Nine.

  • The sight of the planes flying in low formation over the Strip during filming caused a number of Las Vegans to call the police.

  • The song "How Do I Live" was nominated for both an Oscar as Best Original Song and a Razzie as Worst Original Song. It did not win either award.

 

And the scene I chose is the final scene where Nic sees his daughter.
