Trivia

Goofs

Miscellaneous: When the priest is dropping Babydoll off from the orphanage, you initially see her signature head band placed behind her pigtails. As it cuts between her and Blue, you see it move to in front of them (probably because headbands tend to slip if not anchored, especially when there's movement involved) where it remains for the rest of he movie.

Quotes

High Roller: All I require from you is a slither of a moment. To have you not by force, but simply as a man and a women. To see in your eyes, that simple truth, that you give yourself to me freely. Not because you have to, but because you want to.
