Trivia
Jack Nicholson turned down the role of Mitch Leary in the Clint Eastwood film In the Line of Fire (1993), which went to John Malkovich. Ironically, Leary uses the alias "John Booth" in reference to John Wilkes Booth and the Abraham Lincoln assassination to taunt Eastwood's character. Robert Duvall and Robert De Niro were also considered. Sean Penn has worked with Duvall, De Niro, Nicholson, and Eastwood.
Quotes
Freddy Gale:
Now you pity me. You pity me. You know, this is funny...
Mary:
Whatever you are doing Freddy, stop it.
Freddy Gale:
"Whatever you are doing Freddy, stop it". I hope you die. I hope you FUCKING die.
