The film marks the first time husband-and-wife team Meg and Lawrence Kasdan have worked on a script together. Meg said that one of her motivations for writing a script about inner-city violence was the feeling she had that no one was really safe. "We wanted to talk about the brutality of city life and the dangers we all face." The film addresses random violence in alternating displays of racism and the sometimes-unexpectedly benevolent kindness of others.

Before Lawrence Kasdan became a director, he was a prolific screenwriter, having worked for a long time with George Lucas. He cowrote the screenplays for THE EMPIRE STRIKES BACK, RAIDERS OF THE LOST ARK, and RETURN OF THE JEDI.
