"Gross Misconduct is based on a play, Assault With A Deadly Weapon, by Lance Peters, adapted for the screen by actor Gerard Maguire. It was directed by George Miller (Man from Snowy River, Bushfire Moon and many Disney features). The musical score is by Bruce Rowland, who also wrote the music for The Man from Snowy River.

The film is based on a Hobart case of the 1950s, an accusation against an academic, Sydney Sparkes Orr, for gross misconduct. The screenplay has been adapted to Melbourne of the '90s - and filmed at Ormond College where, in fact, a case for sexual harassment against the Master of the college was heard in 1991, other complaints were made in 1995 - and novelist Helen Garner published a book about the issues, The First Stone.

Jimmy Smits of LA Law was brought to Australia for the central role and the character made to be an American who fitted into Australian society. Naomi Watts, who featured in Brides of Christ and then went to America for films like Tank Girl, is effective as the fantasising teenager. Sarah Chadwick (with American accent) leads the supporting cast."
