Stupidity: Carl buries the case with the money in a field by a fence. He looks at the fence line and wonders how he is going to be able to find the spot when he returns. He plants an orange ice scrapper to mark the spot. The scrapper is only 6-8 inches, but it's the middle of winter in Minnesota. The scrapper will be buried by snow. He should have marked the spot by tying something on the fence. (01:18:26)

Audio problem: When Carl is being beat up by Shep, Shep is shouting a whole bunch of obscenities and gibberish at Carl, but during several shots where we see his face, the audio is not matched up to what he is shouting.
Marge Gunderson: So that was Mrs. Lundegaard on the floor in there. And I guess that was your accomplice in the wood chipper.
Trivia: When William Macy was trying out for the part of Jerry Lundegaard, he said to the Cohens he'd shoot their dogs if they didn't give him the role.
