- Director Anderson introduced that Joaquin Phoenix and Reese Witherspoon get along very well, and the two seem to have a language that others can't penetrate. Anderson has to always remind them, "It's shooting, don't chat!" The two had previously collaborated on the film. "Walk with the Song".
- Robert Downey Jr. was originally scheduled to play the lead role, but was later replaced by Phoenix. This is Anderson's cooperation with Phoenix again after "The Master". Later, Downey said that he withdrew from the film because Anderson believed that he was too old, not because of schedule.

PTA made an absurdly realistic marijuana psychedelic movie that is difficult to define. It unfolds an atypical crime story around various characters and large dialogues throughout the film. It seems to be dizzy but like a drug. Like addictive. The lines and pictures are still elegant, and the details are very serious. There should be no suspense in the Oscar for the best adapted screenplay. Thomas Pynchon is a representative of postmodern literature, and PTA has restored the original almost perfectly.

Sortilège: [Narrating] Doc ran through all the things he hadn't asked Shasta. Like how much she'd come to depend on Wolfmann's guaranteed level of ease and power? And least askable of all, how passionately did she really feel about old Mickey? Doc knew the likely reply, "I love him", what else? With the unspoken footnote that the word these days was being way too overused.
