Anecdotes

Kansas is a 1988 American crime drama film starring Matt Dillon and Andrew McCarthy.

Production

Screenwriter Spencer Eastman had never been to Kansas when he wrote the script. It was optioned in 1984 by George Litto. It became Litto's first film in a five film, 2 year, deal with Trans World Entertainment.

Filming took place on location in Kansas, based out of Lawrence in October 1987. Wheat harvest footage was shot in North Dakota. There was also filming in the town of Valley Falls.

"I kinda hung around some of the dingy bars in Kansas, talked with the people there," said Dillon, adding the film was " about America, the heart of America. We're doing this movie in Kansas. And that's what this movie is about. People will say to me, `I heard this film is making fun of Kansas.' God, I hope not. Because, then, it will be making fun of me."

"It's . . . different," said McCarthy. "Nice place to hide out for a while. I don't want to pack up and move here, but it's okay for ten weeks."

One local resident said the film "makes us all look like bumpkins straight out of `Little House on the Prairie.' "
