 For the scene where Trevino is supposed to smash the TV to pieces  with the baseball bat, the bat (which had been Mosleys as a child)  unexpectedly broke in half, while the TV remained unscathed. This  caused a delay in filming which lasted several hours. The next time  the scene was to be done, Mosley did not tell Trevino that he had  unscrewed the frame so that when the bashing started, the TV front  would literally pop off. When the camera rolled, Trevino assumed he  was going to battling the same strong tv again, so when the  explosion happened, it was more violent than ever, achieving what  Mosley wanted as a "ballet of destruction."
