Trivia
Jessica Alba left halfway through the movie's world premiere at the 2010 Sundance Film Festival. Why Alba left is unknown but, according to critics in attendance, there were quite a few walkouts from folks who found the film's violence towards women disturbing, namely scenes featuring Alba repeatedly punched in the face and taking a ruthless belt-lashing across her nude butt by Casey Affleck.

Goofs
In the chase scene where Lou is chasing the bum through the streets to the town square, they pass a tanker truck with a modern cab.

Quotes
Lou Ford: I got a foot on both sides of the fence. They were put there early, and they stayed put. I can't move. I can't jump. All I can do is wait until I split, right down the middle.

A Layered Nuanced Tale

Casey A. is a 50s Sheriff's Deputy in small-town Texas. He is a sadistic train wreck who even though he finds himself in the possession of not one but two luscious female bottoms to paddle with his belt he still has to kill everyone in sight. I may be wrong about that but it started to seem he was going to be of the "kill em all and let god sort em out" school. Even so this movie is marvelous. We get a nice little bit of back story explaining his predilections but to me it's the reactions of those around him that make the movie and not his back story. This is a layered, nuanced tale with many lovely ingredients, not the least of which is this newish, noirish serial killer type. The music is of the rockabilly, C&W, operatic type: it does wonders.
