* AvoidingTheDreadedRRating[=/=]ExecutiveMeddling: There was a lot of back-and-forth between Scorsese, the studios, and MPAA about how long and how explicit the movie would be. The first cut was said to be nearly 4 hours long, and even trimmed cuts were said to be NC-17 worthy. Eventually, they settled on a 3-hour, hard-R cut.

* TheEighties: The film somehow manages to have a somewhat 80s aesthetic and theme despite being set in the 90s. Look at that poster, for example. Perhaps they didn't want to be mistaken for BoilerRoom, which was also inspired by Belfort.
