Film debut of Leslie Zemeckis (as Leslie Harter) (the future Mrs. Robert Zemeckis), though she did have a small role as a model in Over Exposed (1984) almost ten years before.
Originally titled Edge of Innocence, but Martin Scorsese's A Época da Inocência (1993) was being released at the same time so the makers of the film changed the title to Jailbait, with the foreign title being named Streetwise.
