Trivia
In the audio commentary, co-writer and director Derek Cianfrance says that his financier would give him the budget he wanted if he shrank the 158-page script to 120 pages. Without removing anything, he used a smaller font and extended the margins. He says no one noticed.

Goofs
Jason steals "oxys" - Oxycontin or Oxycodone - from the pharmacy shelf. Both these drugs are "CII" (Schedule II) controlled substances, the most restrictive classification for legal drugs. Federal law mandates that they be kept under lock and key to prevent easy access by thieves. They would not be kept on the shelf.

Quotes
Robin: If you ride like lightning, you're going to crash like thunder.

Alternate versions
Although US distributor Focus Features has never released a longer version of its films and considers the theatrical version the director's cut, in April 2013, director Derek Cianfrance stated that he 'looked forward to putting many deleted scenes onto the upcoming DVD/BD releases that could add up to a total runtime of approx. 20 minutes. As of October 2023, however, this extended cut has yet to materialize.

Very Good Movie

I really recommend not to go through any spoilers about this movie and try to enjoy the emotional and reasonable depths of its story. There are more than three dimensions filmed inside The Place Beyond the Pines, where many ideas are dealt with, each is rich enough to make a movie by its own.

The 2 hrs 10 minutes of the movie is in fact the time where at least four different yet connected perspectives are shown, with every one being taken care of as the main one and all main actors in those parts are superstars.

It is so good because it has excellent story, actors and directing.
