5. If you have the box set, you get to see what they actually DID cut out...
No wonder the studio freaked about the budget...:D

9. He DID, in fact cast Winona Ryder, she flew to Italy and...
couldn't leave her hotel room...semi nervous breakdown.
So he cast Sofia. Bad move.

11. You can see the flaws now
back when it was made it was lauded.

Same with Apocalypse Now. I saw lots of flaws watching that the other day.

Ill tell you a movie that I thought was the greatest and then I saw it recently and it ws really pretty badly made. Easy Rider
