흥미로운 사실

Hollow Point is a 1996 Canadian-American action thriller film directed by Sidney J. Furie and starring Thomas Ian Griffith, Tia Carrere, John Lithgow and Donald Sutherland. In this darkly comedic tale, Griffith and Carrere star as members of rival law enforcement agencies, who are both after a group of criminals connected by their cynical accountant (Lithgow) and their former hitman (Sutherland).

Production

Hollow Point was the first in a series of mid 1990s to early 2000s projects partnering Los Angeles producer Elie Samaha of Phoenician Entertainment with Montreal-based Nicolas Clermont of Filmline International. The picture had a budget of CAD$9.5 million. It was backed by Astral Communications, a Montreal-based media conglomerate which was ramping up its investment in movie production at the time.

Photography started on April 20, 1995, and was planned for about seven weeks with a wrap on May 30. Virtually all of the film was shot in Montreal, though some B-roll of Boston's downtown—where the story is set—was used in the opening sequence. Locations include sections of Old Montreal and parts of the West Island, including the Beaconsfield Golf Club.

On May 10, 1995, during the filming of a car crash on Rachel Street near the former Angus factory, a 60 cm × 30 cm (1.97 ft × 0.98 ft) piece of metal welded under the vehicle to hold an explosive charge was torn apart and struck grips Christian Sauvageau and Jean-François Bourassa. Sauvageau suffered an open arm fracture, but Bourassa died on his way to the hospital. It was believed to be the first death caused by filming in Canada.

Montreal Urban Community Police quickly concluded to the absence of criminal negligence. However, a report by Quebec's Work, Health and Safety Board later determined that the piece of metal had not been soldered strongly enough relative to the large amount of black powder (680 grams or 24 oz) used in the explosion, while the 28 m (92 ft) safety distance was insufficient.
