Movie Trivia/Goofs

Movie Goof (continuity error): Near the start of the film when Dan is pushing his brother Ronnie around, there's a large crack on the wall (probably from a previous shot). After he pushes Ronnie near the wall, another large crack appears but Ronnie is never shown hitting the wall.
Brian De Palma who had originally been slated to direct, had worked on the script for over a year before being replaced by Sidney Lumet
To prepare for the role, Treat Williams spent a month with New York City police, participated in a drug bust and lived with Robert Leuci, the person on whom his character is based.
Lumet wanted to direct the film because he felt it would be a more accurate portrayal of police than Serpico.
