Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaListed as one of George Clooney's favorite films on his resumé. He said, "It was the first time where I had a say, and it was the first good screenplay I'd read where I just went 'That's it.' Even though it didn't do very well box-office wise, we sort of tanked again, it was a really good film."
- GoofsThe supposedly uncut diamonds sparkle and look like already-cut diamonds.
- Quotes
Jack Foley: It's like seeing someone for the first time, like you can be passing on the street, and you look at each other for a few seconds, and there's this kind of a recognition like you both know something. Next moment the person's gone, and it's too late to do anything about it. And you always remember it because it was there, and you let it go, and you think to yourself, 'What if I had stopped? What if I had said something?' What if, what if... it may only happen a few times in your life.
Karen Sisco: Or once.
Jack Foley: [softly] Or once.
