Quiz
Writer David Mamet has actual experience sailing on cargo vessels where he worked as a cook.

Blooper
When Collins is describing to Skippy the people photographing the hatch crane, he repeatedly says they were standing on the "boat deck." On a lake freighter, the deck containing the hatch covers and the hatch crane is called the "spar deck,' which one would expect a lakeboat officer to know. The "Boat Deck" is at the stern, one deck higher than the spar deck. It would be possible to see and photograph the hatch crane in operation from the boat deck on most lakers, but the company guests are shown standing next to the hatch cover, on the spar deck.

Citazioni
Stan: Boy, was I drunk last night.
Joe Pitko: I'm *still* drunk.

Joe Pitko: I'm so hung over I can't see.
Stan: Can't see? I can't even talk.
Joe Pitko: I can't even fuckin' think straight.
Stan: You couldn't think straight *last night*.
Joe Pitko: I was drunk last night.
Stan: You're *still* drunk.
Joe Pitko: Yeah.

Poorly Done

One would think that having worked with David Mamet for so many years, Joe Mantegna would have a superb understanding of Mamet-speak. Mamet's dialog requires a certain rhythm, or cadence to make it work, and despite the high caliber actors involved in this project, I didn't feel that many of them pulled it off very well. Denis Leary and Robert Forster seemed to get it, but everyone else around them seemed very stilted, and the dialog seemed truly forced. Mamet is fascinated by the dance of dialog, and if the cast won't dance, it doesn't work.
