Production
[edit]
Filming took place in Sydney, Australia, for budgetary reasons. Except for the American Berenger, the cast members were Australian, and were coached by a Texas-born dialect coach to use correct Texan accents. To bypass the differences between American and Australian rules football, the filmmakers recruited players from American football clubs in Australia for the football scenes.[5]
