In the summer of 1989, Lynch had finished the pilot episode for the successful television series Twin Peaks, and tried to rescue two of his projects – Ronnie Rocket and One Saliva Bubble – both involved in contractual complications as a result of the bankruptcy of Dino De Laurentiis, which had been bought by Carolco Pictures. Lynch stated, 'I've had a bad time with obstacles...it wasn't Dino's fault, but when his company went down the tubes, I got swallowed up in that.' Independent production company Propaganda Films commissioned Lynch to develop an updated noir screenplay based on a 1940s crime novel, while Monty Montgomery, a friend of Lynch's and an associate producer on Twin Peaks, asked novelist Barry Gifford what he was working on. Gifford happened to be writing the manuscript for Wild at Heart: The Story of Sailor and Lula but still had two more chapters to write.

In March 1984, investigator Glenn Norris of the State Attorney's Office filed new perjury charges against Jaffe, alleging that two statements of his made during investigations of his land deals were false: one in which he failed to mention that Atlantic Commercial Development Corporation had maintained an account with the First National Bank of Elko, Nevada, and another in which he failed to mention money paid by ACDC to his daughter Robin Jaffe when asked if the corporation had paid any money to his family members. In media comments, Jaffe stated, "[Boyles'] first spurious charges went down the tubes, and now it looks like there's a good chance his second spurious charges are going down the tubes". In June 1984, Florida Special Prosecutor Larry Nixon disclosed that the state government was preparing an extradition request for Jaffe on those perjury charges. In October 1984, Jaffe was also sentenced to 180 days in jail for contempt of court, but this misdemeanor charge was not an extraditable offence.
