What's left behind the scenes

While the characters are waiting for the elevator, the floor indicator skips the number 4. In China and Hong Kong, the number four is considered unlucky due to the similar pronunciation of the words for 'four' and 'death'.
An alternative ending to the film, released on DVD for Western markets, was filmed specifically for distribution in China. Censors in that country disliked the political subtext of the original film's ending.
In Cantonese, the name of Dr. Li Sum-Yi sounds the same as 'your psychiatrist'.

To ensure approximately equal screen time for the main characters, Andy Lau demanded the removal of many of his scenes from the film.
Gordon Lam was offered two roles – the one ultimately played by Chapman To, and the role of a police inspector, which he chose. However, he was given a fake script, where the inspector was a regular policeman, not a 'mole'. Lam played him as such, and only on the day of filming the final scene on the roof was he given the real script, detailing his character as an undercover agent, a 'mole' within the police.

Gordon Lam was offered two roles to choose from – the role eventually played by Chapman To, and the role of a police inspector, which he chose. However, he was given a fake script; in it, the inspector was a regular police officer, not an “undercover agent.” Lam played it that way, and only on the day of filming the final scene on the roof was he given the real script, where his character was written as an undercover agent embedded in the police force.
