Line 10:
=== This film contains examples of: ===
* [[Acceptable Breaks From Reality]]: [[Roger Ebert]] complained about the plot putting both men in the same room, since in reality hospitals would put them in separate rooms to make ''more'' money. However, if they didn't share a room there would be no plot.
* [[Actor Allusion]]: Carter talks about wanting to be the first Black president in his youth. Morgan Freeman played the president in [[Deep Impact]], though it is unclear if he was the first African-American one in the story.
** Edward talks about missing a lunch meeting with Michelle Pfeiffer to attend a hearing. Nicholson starred with Pfeiffer in ''[[Wolf]]'', and both also played villains in the [[Tim Burton]] [[Batman]] movies. Though not at the same time.
* [[Award Bait Song]]: John Mayer's "Say" over the credits.
* [[Blood From the Mouth]]: Edward first discovers something is wrong when he coughs up blood into a handkerchief.
