[edit] Cable disclaimers

The version of the film I've seen on US cable, although uncut, contains disclaimers before the end credits stating that the New York youth correctional authorities and the Manhattan district attorney's office deny that the events in the film took place, also that Carcaterra stands by his story.

Apparently this cable disclaimers are used elsewhere in the world - I saw the film on Dutch TV while visiting Amsterdam. Ellsworth 00:10, 19 June 2007 (UTC)

I own the film on VHS and it includes the disclaimers as well. Thief12 (talk) 01:53, 5 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] 1979 or 1981

I changed the year of the 2nd half of film back to 1981. In the bar scene, immediately before killing Nokes, John and Tommy overhear two businessmen talking about Reagan administration policies. Ellsworth 19:48, 20 June 2007 (UTC)

The year is also clearly shown on the screen as the second half starts. Thief12 (talk) 01:53, 5 May 2008 (UTC)
