* AdaptationDistillation: The movie cuts out a lot of material from the book. For example, Perry's acrimonious relationship with his sister Barbara is covered quite a bit in the book, yet never gets mentioned in the film. Perry and Dick's adventures in Mexico, also a topic of many pages in the book, is omitted and left at two brief scenes in a hotel room.

Added DiffLines:
* SomethingOnlyTheyWouldSay: When the detectives tell Perry that Dick confessed to the murders, Perry keeps his mouth shut, believing it's a classic LyingToThePerp move. That is, until Dewey mentions the false story Perry told Dick about whipping a colored man in Las Vegas to death with a bicycle chain, at which point Perry confesses all.
