TRIVIA AND POPULAR DIALOGUES

Trivia

Naomi Watts was pregnant with her second child, and there's a scene at the clinic where the audience can see her real son moving inside her belly. Naomi said in an interview that the baby was sleeping and she took a cold glass of water to wake him up inside.

The color purple is in every scene.

Naomi Watts only spent eight days filming her leading role.

Despite playing mother and daughter on film, in reality, Annette Bening is only ten years older than Naomi Watts. Nevertheless, Bening's character got pregnant at fourteen, so their age difference shouldn't be much more anyway.

Robin Wright was originally cast as Elizabeth.

Popular Dialogues

"Ray: Do you always tell the truth? Lucy: The truth is easier to remember."

"Paul: Is it an affair if neither party is married? Elizabeth: An affair is any sexual or romantic relationship of an informal or temporary nature."
