    • Trivia
      Edward states that he learned French so that he could read "Thérèse Racquin" in the original language. "Thérèse Racquin" by Émile Zola is about an adulterous couple who dispose of the woman's husband so that they may be together, a close parallel to the story of "Dirty Tricks."

    UK DVD heavily edited?
    The UK DVD only runs for 1 hour and 41 minutes or thereabouts The Region 1 DVD is longer, but nothing compares to the runtime quoted on IMDB. A shame we can't see the full version any more.
