 Randal Kleiser shot a scene of Kenickie and Rizzo getting into a  heated argument, which explained their attitude towards each other  in the diner scene (where Rizzo threw the malt at Kenickie). The  fight scene was cut because it didnt match the tone of the rest of  the film; it was much grittier, described by one crew member as  "looking like something Martin Scorsese might have directed."
