When Bobby got pushed over toward the end of the movie, I seem to remember something, maybe an alternate scene where he grabs the gun at some point and tries to shoot himself, but there aren't any bullets in the gun and he laughs. I'm wondering if that sequence was ever shown or if I'm imagining things?
When I rented this movie a few years ago, I think I rented it on VHS, and I'm pretty sure that Sean Penn's character does try to shoot himself but realizes that he is out of bullets. Since I'm assuming that you guys have seen this movie on DVD, maybe that particular sequence was cut out of the DVD version. Just a thought. Also, I absolutely hated -- and I mean HATED -- this film.
