The film was accepted at the 1997 Sundance Film Festival, but it did not perform as well as he had hoped. However, Steven Spielberg called him in 1997 on the basis of Diesel’s work in his first time, and the young actor was subsequently offered a role in Saving Private Ryan, a true story about sacrifice and heroism in World War II, starring Tom Hanks.
