To say that Joaquin Phoenix and Reese Witherspoon were amazing in this movie is to put it lightly, but it was almost not so, Reese Witherspoon told Oprah Winfrey that she had second thoughts about starring in the film and that she had wanted to back out of her agreement to the point where she involved her lawyer to try to get her out of the film. She later changed her mind and took the role up as a challenge.
