Actor William H. Macy at the time this film was made and first released had collaborated with writer-director Mamet for about some thirty-five years. Macy said: "Dave is a great storyteller and he tells big and brave stories. His writing is shockingly blunt and to the point, yet it contains poetry, it is poetry, it has meter." As an example, he cites the Mamet play 'American Buffalo' (1975), in which Macy originated the role of Bobby. "Any time I run into an actor who has played that role we start running the lines together. It's like singing a song, you just start humming the words."

According to the earliest draft of the script, the scene where Major Warren interrogates Bob, Oswaldo, and Joe Gage about working with Daisy, and poisoning the coffee, was originally supposed to be more brutal and disturbing than what was shown on film. Instead of simply threatening to pour the rest of the poisoned coffee down Daisy's throat, Warren was written to violently beat her, hold her at gunpoint, and then prepares to shoot her in the head, until Joe Gage finally intervenes. This scene also had more dialogue.
