Did you know
• Jodie Foster landed the role of Libby after Meg Ryan and Brooke Shields both declined, but was replaced by Ashley Judd when Foster became pregnant.
• While it's true that the U.S. Constitution forbids a person to be tried for the same crime after being acquitted, being convicted for a crime does not give a person license to then go and commit that same crime they were convicted of. Also, murder is not the only crime that Libby Parsons could have been charged with - others would include carrying a concealed weapon, stalking, manslaughter, and parole violation.
• Despite playing the main character and protagonist, Ashley Judd took second billing behind Tommy Lee Jones.
