 After Paul Thomas Anderson (qv) had shown  _Cigarettes & Coffee (1993)_ (qv) at the 1993 Sundance Film  Festival, he was invited to the Sundance Institute Filmmaker Lab.  There, he shot a few scenes from this movie (John and Sydney in the  diner, John calling Sydney from a payphone, the motel sequence with  the hostage, and Jimmy threatening Sydney in his car).  John C. Reilly (I) (qv) and Philip Baker Hall (qv) played the  roles they had in the film (John and Sydney respectively), while  Moira Kelly (I) (qv) played Clementine (played in the movie by  Gwyneth Paltrow (qv)) and Courtney B. Vance (qv), played Jimmy  (later played by Samuel L. Jackson (qv)). The diner, payphone and  car scenes all got edited and can be seen on the DVD release of the  film, but the scene in the motel was not cut.
