Trivia:
Mamet's script began as an adaptation of his friend William J. Caunitz's novel "Suspects", but the more Mamet wrote the more his story diverged from the book until it ultimately became an original screenplay. moreGoofs:
Continuity: Toward the end of the film, when two policemen take Randolph away from Bob Gold, Bob's right arm is hanging. In the next shot, Bob's right arm is stretched. moreFAQ

Some complain about Mamet's writing and directing but I am unable to ignore his films. Either you like this style or you don't. I would rather watch a Mamet film than eat Rocky Road ice cream ( and that says a lot! ) There are certainly weaknesses in plot and character development here but it is still watchable.
