What's left behind the scenes

After Brian Helgeland left the project, approximately one-third of the film was reshot.
Almost all the phones in the film are rotary dial, not push-button.
Reshoots of the film led to a year-long delay in its release.
In an interview with a Hong Kong newspaper, Mel Gibson admitted that John Moore was responsible for the film's reshoots.
Porter's pistol is a Smith & Wesson Model 27 .357.
The name of Mel Gibson's character is never spoken throughout the film; everyone refers to him by his last name – Porter. When Resnick is asked about Porter's first name, he replies: “I don’t know. He always calls himself Porter.”
Sally Kellerman voiced Bronson in the director's cut of the film. The audience only hears her voice, but does not see this character. In the theatrical version of the film, Chris Kristofferson played this character.
Kevin Stitt and Brian Helgeland edited the new version of the film in 2005.
Scott Stambler wrote some of the music for the theatrical version of the film and also participated in the work on the director's cut. He recorded completely new music for the film in February 2006.
Brian Helgeland was fired by the studio two days after he received an 'Oscar' for 'L.A. Confidential'.
The bar where Val meets Stegman is called 'At Warrick's,' which is a reference to Walter Matthau's painting 'Charley Varrick' (1973).
The main change made to the film after Brian Helgeland's departure was making Chris Christopherson the primary villain.
Deborah Kara Unger broke two ribs while filming the scene where Porter (Mel Gibson) violently beats her.
In the director's cut, Porter (Mel Gibson) fires 13 shots from a six-chambered pistol.
Throughout the entire film, Mel Gibson's character's first name is never mentioned; everyone refers to him by his last name – Porter. When Resnick is asked about Porter's first name, he replies: "I don't know. He always calls himself Porter."
