Trivia

Things worth knowing

• 2Editor Chris Hegedus shaped the rhythm. On an edit-heavy film, the editor does more to control your pulse than the director.
• 3Alan Wilder and Martin Gore and Dave Gahan carry the top of the cast.
• 4IMDB entry: tt0094590 — still the authoritative cross-reference for credits and trivia.
• 5Only 40 TMDB ratings — you're getting ahead of the curve on this one.
