- Dawson Casting: Most of the students are played by actors in their twenties.
- Truer to the Text: Odd example, but the film makes the teacher's anarchist/anti-establishment background a much more important part of the movie which actually reflects the real Ron Jones better than the previous iterations based on him.
- Very Loosely Based on a True Story: The film is based on the Third Wave experiment and Emsdetten school shooting.
