Movie Trivia/Goofs

→ View All

Although Sarah Michelle Gellar plays the older version of Kathryn while Amy Adams plays the younger version in the prequel Cruel Intentions 2 (2000) (V), in real life Sarah Michelle Gellar is younger to Amy Adams by 3 years.
Movie Goof (revealing mistake): When Sebastian goes up to the glass in his therapist's office you can see marks from when he hit his forehead against it in previous takes
Swoosie Kurtz also appeared in Dangerous Liaisons which, like this film, is based on the Choderlos de Laclos novel "Les liaisons dangereuses".
Movie Goof (errors in geography): SPOILER: In the closing scene as Annette is driving out of the city there are a few shots from the car (side on) where you can see sand and hills. Then it cuts to a front shot of the city, with no hills or sand in sight.
