<P> Johnson found Hopper's approach to filmmaking "a little disappointing, I gotta tell you". He later recalled: </P> <P> Mike Figgis had written a script called The Hot Spot, and it was a heist movie . Three days before we started shooting, Dennis Hopper came to all of us, he called a meeting on a Sunday, and he said, "Okay, we're not making that script . We're making this one ." And he passed a script around the table that had been written for Robert Mitchum in the' 60s...or maybe it was the' 50s...and it was based on a book called Hell Hath No Fury . And that was the movie that we ended up making . This was three days before we started shooting! So he was kind of looking around the table at everybody and saying, "Well, you know, if Don Johnson bails, we don't have a movie ." (Laughs .) And I read the script, and I said, "Wow!" I mean, the Figgis script was really slick and cool, and it was a heist movie, but this was real noir, the guy was an amoral drifter, and it was all about how women were going to take him down . </P> <P> Hopper shot the film on location in Texas during what he described as the "hottest, steamiest weather you could imagine". The primary locations were in Taylor, Texas, especially its iconic downtown area, locations around and in Austin as well as in Luling . The swimming scenes were filmed at the famous Hamilton Pool Preserve west of Austin . </P> <P> The Hot Spot had its world premiere at the 1990 Toronto Festival of Festivals . Director Dennis Hopper felt that stars Don Johnson and Virginia Madsen were not as enthusiastic in promoting the film as he would have liked . Hopper said of Johnson that "He says he's not going to do anything for this picture until he reads the reviews ." Johnson claims that he was unable to do promotion because he was shooting the film Harley Davidson and the Marlboro Man with Mickey Rourke . Of Madsen, Hopper claimed that she "was very embarrassed" by the amount of her on - screen nudity . The film was released on October 12, 1990, in 23 theaters, grossing USD $112,188 in its opening weekend . The film grossed only $1.2 million in the North America, far less than the cost of its production . </P>
