* JerkassWoobie: Freddie. The guy is severely mentally ill and the people he falls in with are are manipulating him and making him worse with their "treatment."

Added DiffLines:
* AlternativeCharacterInterpretation: Freddie resting by the sandwoman in the final scene. On one hand, it could mean that Freddie is ready to have a normal relationship and has truly changed for the better over the course of the film, as he interacts with it in a comforting way rather than a sexual way than before. On the other hand, it could mean that he hasn't changed at all and he knows that, which changes it into a tragic ending.

**Unguided Message, a behind-the-scenes short, shows that during one take of the UncomfortableElevatorMoment, one of the cast members farted, much to the consternation of the crew.
**One scene shows Dodd and Freddie unearthing a revolver while digging up The Split Saber manuscript. Dodd inspects the weapon and winds up pointing it at himself, causing Freddie to quickly swing it away. Later on, in another deleted scene, Freddie plays with the gun, including some quick-draw techniques and a silly firing-while-falling-in-slow-motion straight out of a Western.
