• There are several minor scenes that appear in the trailer for the film, but aren't actually in the film. Among the missing footage:
  • A corpse lying covered in the refrigerated room with a toe tag reading Martin Bells;
  • A shot of Martin burning a piece of paper with a lighter;
  • and most significantly, a voice-over by a woman who tells Martin "I think the best attitude to take is that you'll have plenty of quiet time for studying. Assuming the whole idea of it doesn't bother you. Some people it bothers."
  
  
  
• The original cut of the film was just about 2 1/2 hours and included a different score and different opening sequence which was just an extended version of the two couples having dinner together followed by an extended scene at the local pub. The entire subplot of discussion of marriage between Lauren Graham and Josh Brolin's characters was cut, including a sequence at the end where they are married at a double wedding alongside Patricia Arquette and Ewan McGregor's characters. This version also included an extended restaurant scene with Joyce and more contact between her and Martin throughout the film, including a much more graphic death sequence in Joyce's apartment.
