|
Verazzano Narrows. You only see the bridge for a split second.
no refined sugar. This rule was very tough for Sara.
Consorting. This is only mentioned one time, during the scene where Harry and Tyrone are walking home from prison. Tyrone was up for parole on consorting due to the gang incident that happened in his presence.
Seymour. Harry's father's name is mentioned several times by Sara (Harry's mother). Harold is Harry's real name. Harry's father had passed away long ago, and we only see a picture of Seymour.
Silver. Contrary to popular belief, Marion's last name is in fact SILVER. If you watch the credits, it clearly states so. Most people believe the name to be SILVA, however that is only because the New York accents presented by Sara and Harry pronounce it this way.
Green. Although all the choices WERE in fact pills that she was instructed to take, the green one was for night time. She also explains this to Harry when he confronts her about being on "uppers".
Snorting. This is shown several times throughout the movie, although many people get confused as to "who" is doing it "when." But if you watch the eye colors of who is getting dialated, you can tell when it is Marion. Harry, Tyrone and Marion have different colored eyes, so you always know it's Marion when you see the green eyes.
"Juice by Tappy!". We've got a winner! This show was based on a 3 step weight loss program by Tappy Tibbons. He would have guests come on the show that used the program. This was NOT the show that Sara applied for.
Waldbaum's. This is mentioned a couple of times during the grocery store scene. At first, they do not see anybody. Then they notice that the action is taking place in the loading areas in the back of the store. Of course the charade goes sour, leaving Harry and Tyrone empty handed.
934-8777. The phone number is seen a couple of times during the movie when Harry writes it on the back of a photograph of himself and Marion, and when Marion makes the call that sealed her fate.
Spring. Summer is the beginning, when everything seems to be going perfectly for each character. Fall is when everything begins to literally fall. Winter is the plummetting season where the characters find their horrible fates.
Winter. Although Fall is when things start going awry, Winter is when everything completely crashes and burns. The climatic points of the movie all take place in Winter. We never see the Spring season.
Arnold. This actor, Sean Gullette, was also the star of the critically acclaimed film "PI", also by Darren Aronofsky. His name is mentioned several times throughout the movie, and during his dinners with Marion.
Mr. Rabinowitz. This actor, Mark Margolis, was also in the Darren Aronofsky film "PI". His name is only mentioned two times by Sara, when she goes to buy her TV back from him.
