L'Homme en colère was Pinoteau's fourth film, and the third starring Lino Ventura. It was shot in Montreal and the Laurentian Mountains. It remains as the only film in which Lino Ventura, a man known for his moral values and who had been married for more than 35 years, ever kissed a woman on the mouth. According to director Claude Pinoteau, "It was like asking him to perform some frighteningly dangerous stunt".
