Scott and the film's two leads received Academy Award nominations, while screenwriter and ''[[What Could Have Been|intended director]]'' Callie Khouri grabbed the Oscar for her screenplay. The film was named to the [[National Film Registry]] in 2016.

As the two experience freedom they never had before, the long arm of the law finally corners them at <s>the Grand Canyon</s> a canyon that is totally not the Grand Canyon, because if it had been they would have had to pay to get there, because it's a National Park, and the rangers don't just let you {{spoiler|drive up to the edges of cliffs like that}}.
