La canción de la película, "You Are So Beautiful", fue interpretada por Joe Cocker. Las dos novelas se basan en el personaje Carlito Brigante, un narcotraficante que después de ir a prisión se reforma y decide alejarse del crimen y de los negocios ilegales, pero estos continúan persiguiéndole. El film de 1993 está ambientado en el año 1975, y está basado en la novela After Hours pero no se utilizó este título para evitar confusión con la película de Martin Scorsese de mismo nombre y que no tiene relación con la saga de Carlito Brigante. El director tomó After Hours ya que Pacino no era tan joven como para interpretar al Carlito Brigante de Carlito's Way.
