Sleepers trivia
- This was 'Billy Crudup' (qv)'s film debut.
- Author 'Lorenzo Carcaterra' (qv) has claimed that his book on which the film is based was a true story of his childhood. When the New York legal community went on record stating that no cases resembling the events of his book could be found in any court records, Carcaterra refused to discuss the discrepancy. His claims have been neither proven or disproven.
- 'Devon Sawa' (qv) was offered the role of Young Michael Sullivan, but passed because he was in production with _Wild America (1997)_ (qv).

Sleepers goofs
- DATE: In the scene where the boys are lying on the roof right before they steal the hot dog cart, the One Penn Plaza skyscraper in Midtown Manhattan is seen behind Michael. This building was not built until 1972, five years after the scene takes place.
- CHAR: The priest says that it took Michelangelo nine years to paint the Sistine Chapel ceiling. It took four years to paint the ceiling. (It took an additional four years or so to paint 'The Last Judgement' on the wall behind the altar.)
- CONT: John offers Tommy a cigarette from a Marlboro pack in the bar. When Tommy is shown putting the cigarette in his mouth it is clearly a Camel brand cigarette.
- CONT: When the young lads are looking into the Ice Capades' dressing room, the windows are covered by a wire mesh, but looking back at the peeping eye from the inside there is no mesh.
- DATE: After the trial, Mike enters the subway at the BMT Chambers Street station (under the Municipal Building). The station signs are of 1990s type, not from the early 1980s.
