Quotes
Jude:
Is there anybody going to listen to my story all about the girl who came to stay? She's the kind of girl you want so much, it makes you sorry. Still, you don't regret a single day. Aw, girl. Girl...
Goofs
When Lucy is trying to make it to the roof at the end of the movie the police officers go from having night sticks in their hands to having their hands facing palms out to stop the crowds.
Alternate Versions
The Blu-ray edition omits when the one police officer says "No one else is allowed up there." after allowing the rest of the gang to stay on the roof of the building. This can lead to confusion as to why Lucy wasn't allowed to go up after realizing Jude was up there.
