Author John O'Brien, on whose novel this movie is based, committed suicide two weeks after the movie went into production. Director Mike Figgis contemplated abandoning the project, but decided the film would make a good memorial for O'Brien.
To get ready for his role, Nicolas Cage filmed himself drunk to study his speech patterns.
Nicolas Cage researched his character by binge drinking and visiting many hospitalized career alcoholics. Elisabeth Shue associated with prostitutes and interviewed them on the strip in Las Vegas.
The Rolex that Ben wears in the film is John O'Brien's actual watch.
Ben doesn't eat a single thing during the entire film. This reinforces his dependence on alcohol as chronic alcoholics usually forget to eat or can't force food down. During the restaurant scene he puts spaghetti on his fork but doesn't eat it. And when Sera fixes him rice, he eats an ice cube instead.
"Ben Sanderson: I don't know if I started drinking 'cause my wife left me or my wife left me 'cause I started drinking, but fuck it anyway."
"Sera: So, for 500 bucks, you can do pretty much whatever you want. You can fuck my ass. Ben Sanderson: Oh, my God. Sera: You can cum on my face. Whatever you want to do. Just keep it out of my hair. Ben Sanderson: Okay. Sera: I just washed it."
