  • The location of Rich Cusack's residence in the film is from a fake French castle outside Toronto.
  • When filming the sex scene on the stairs, the actor did not use the special effect pad, so in the later naked shots on the bed, Edie's back showed signs of bruising and had to be covered by a makeup artist.
  • The scene where Tom killed two robbers in a restaurant was later cut out. In the original version, the young robber was shot seven times in the body, while the older robber was shot twice in the head. Cronenberg believes This scene was a bit too much, there was a suspicion of promoting violence, so it was deleted.
  • Thomas Jane and Harrison Ford both refused to play Tom in the film.
  • The scenes in the restaurant were all filmed in the studio, and the crew built a street view outside the window.
  • In order to develop a Philadelphia accent, Vigo Mortensen, who plays Tom, asks Maria Bello's uncle and brother for advice.
  • Some of the props in the restaurant and Stewart’s house were purchased by Vigo Mortensen.
  • When the protagonist drove to Philadelphia, a Canadian speed limit sign appeared on the highway.

    The story is alright, but the performance of the male pig's feet is relatively underwhelming. Violent scenes don't feel as tense as Quentin and the Coen brothers.

    1. Under such a grand title, Cronenberg shows that violence is the best original solution to problems. Although the father wants to teach his son not to use violence to solve problems, he also knows that many problems can only be solved by violence. 2. Don't tell me that the stupid comedy martial arts film did not copy or pay tribute to this film.
