    Storyline

    • Trivia
      Writers Joel Coen and Ethan Coen suffered writer's block while writing Miller's Crossing (1990). They took a three week break and wrote Barton Fink (1991) a film about a writer with writer's block. The name of Tom Regan's residence is "The Barton Arms". In one of the newspapers an article reads 'Seven Dead in Hotel Fire,' another reference to Barton Fink.
    • Goofs
      When Tom throws the glass at the mirror in the woman's washroom, the cracks in the glass change between shots.
    • Quotes

      Tom Reagan: Nobody knows anybody. Not that well.

    • Crazy credits
      The opening credits list production companies, the title, and the main cast. The crew is not listed until the ending credits, starting with a director credit.
    • Alternate versions
      Although there is no mention of this on the packaging, the Criterion Blu-ray edition released in 2022 is over two minutes shorter than the theatrical release version. Among the cuts are Frankie's line 'Jesus, Tom' after Tom hits him in the face with a chair, and the line 'Take care now' said by Lazzare's messenger after Tom is subjected to a beating.

    Bugsy Malone on Scotch or Irish...
    I think I'll resign myself to being one of those that is prepared to have missed a few things rather than flagellating myself several times to squeeze out that essence others seem so keen to leach on. It's an enjoyable film, with some great performances and dialogue, albeit with some daft stuff thrown in for good measure.
