What's left behind the scenes
- Mary Elizabeth Winstead and Jennifer Goodwin auditioned for the role of Jennifer.
- Greta Gerwig was initially cast in the role of Jennifer, but she had to decline due to a scheduling conflict.
- Much of the film was shot in the city of Schenectady, New York. The film’s title comes from the name of this city, which translates from the Mohawk language as “place under the pines.”
- Director Derek Cianfrance stated that he would not have made the film without Bradley Cooper in the role of Cross. He actually drove five hours to Toronto to meet with Cooper in person and convince him to take the role. Cianfrance said he wrote the role specifically for Cooper— “a guy who postures like a hero but feels rotten inside.”
- Ryan Gosling suggested Eva Mendes audition for the role of Romina.
- The wife of Derek Cianfrance, Shannon Plumb, appears in the film as a woman in an ice cream shop.
- Two months before filming began, Andriy Parekh, who was the cinematographer for "Blue Valentine" (2010), declined to work on the project largely due to the Globe of Death stunt at the beginning of the film (a stunt involving motorcyclists inside a spherical cage). According to Derek Cianfrance, Parekh spoke to him on the phone and said he had refused to continue working on the film because he had a dream in which he was killed during filming. And that dream almost came true: during the filming of this stunt, operator Shawn Bobbitt nearly died. A motorcycle fell on him while filming the stunt inside the cage.
- Derek Cianfrance did 22 takes of the scene in which Ryan Gosling accelerates on a motorcycle to get through an intersection before 36 cars collide with each other. Cianfrance wanted a stunt double for this scene, but it would have been immediately obvious that it wasn't Gosling. He also said that in each of these takes, he clenched his shirt in his teeth from nerves, and by the time a good take was achieved, he had managed to bite a hole through it. The scene did not make the final cut of the film.
- Derek Cianfrance said that he was inspired by television shows in the style of "Police Story" (1989) and America's Wildest Police Chases when filming the chase scenes in the film.
- According to Ryan Gosling, all the bank robbery scenes were filmed in one take.
- All the banks robbed in this film are real. The First National Bank of Scotland allowed filming in several of its branches.
- According to director Derek Cianfrance, he met Ryan Gosling at his agent's house in 2007 while working on 'Crazy, Stupid, Love.' (2010). He asked Gosling, 'Is there anything in your life you haven't done yet but would like to try?' Gosling replied that he had always wanted to rob a bank. Cianfrance asked him how he would rob a bank, and Gosling described a motorcycle robbery because it was fast and mobile, and a helmet would help conceal his identity. He said he would leave the motorcycle in the back of a truck after the robbery so the police wouldn't find it. Cianfrance told him that he was actually writing a script about a bank robbery exactly like that, and he felt that Gosling should play the role.
- After a successful bank robbery, Luke tells Robin, "There hasn't been a duo like this since Hall and Oates!". Later, as Avery and his colleagues return from Romina’s house, having retrieved the money Luke left for his son, the song “Maneater” by Hall and Oates is playing on the radio.
- During the scene in the police station, where a stack of stolen $20 bills is shown, it can be noticed that the design of the bills does not match the time period in which the film takes place (1997). These banknotes only appeared in 1998.
