TRIVIA AND POPULAR DIALOGUES

Trivia

Robert Altman felt that Liv Tyler had been too glamorous in previous films, so he asked her to cut her hair short for for this movie. (Arguably, the short hair did little to diminish her glamour.)

Patricia Neal's first film in 10 years. Her scenes took two weeks to film.

Charles S. Dutton and Patricia Neal were the first actors to be cast in the film.

Robert Altman hired a local theater group to stage a scene from Oscar Wilde's "Salome". He then copied their staging for the rendition of that same scene in the film.

Anne Rapp's association with Robert Altman began when she met him through her ex-husband who was one of Altman's racetrack buddies. The two clicked and started writing scripts together. Their first collaboration was one of the segments for the "Gun" (1997) mini-series. This was their second and they both enjoyed the experience so much that they reunited the following year for "Dr T and the Women".

Popular Dialogues

"Cora Duvall: Camille, Aunt Jewel shot herself. Camille Dixon: We don't know that Aunt Jewel shot herself. Cora Duvall: What do you mean? Camille Dixon: All we know was that Aunt Jewel was shot, period. Cora Duvall: But - but the gun was in her hand. She must have - must have - Camille Dixon: Don't always go for the obvious, Cora. Just think! Cora Duvall: What are you eating? Camille Dixon: Nothin'. Now, you just listen to me, all right? Aunt Jewel did not commit suicide. Nobody in this family commits suicide. Suicide is a disgrace. Only crazy people commit suicide. So if that's what come - some robber, some murderer is trying to make this look like, well, forget that you saw the gun in her hand, you hear me? It was not there. Aunt Jewel did not commit suicide."

"Lester Boyle: He's innocent. Eddie "The Expert" Pitts: And what makes you so sure of that? Lester Boyle: I've fished with him."
