Quotes
Kirby:
Everyone in this town knows I've only got one leg. And that motherfucker grabbed the wrong one.
Goofs
In the scene where Larenz is playing pool with Cowboy, Larenz is leaning on the table and cowboy yells at him to get off the table, there is a large white sheet of Cardboard laying in the middle of the table. When the shot changes angle to the view from the distance the sheet is gone. This sheet of cardboard would make it very hard to play a game of pool.
Alternate Versions
Criterion laserdisc version includes additional scenes originally deleted before the theatrical release.
