Interesting facts

No Looking Back is a 1998 American drama film directed, written, produced by, and starring Edward Burns. The film centers on the relationship between Charlie (Burns) and Claudia. The film had a limited theatrical release and grossed less than $250,000 domestically from its $5 million budget.

Production

Burns said he originally wanted a budget of $12 million to get more shooting days but he was only able to secure $5 million; he attributes the tepid critical reception and box office of She's the One to the reduction in budget. The movie was shot over 35 days, from April 10 to May 29, 1997, in Rockaway Beach, Queens.

Burns cast Lauren Holly and Jon Bon Jovi because they had both grown up in small towns in the Northeastern United States - Holly in Upstate New York and Bon Jovi in Sayerville, New Jersey - and Holly's real life experience as a diner waitress.
