Trivia:

In the scene where Helen sits down onto a shovel handle, she didn't sit in the way she was expected to do, so the SFX people had to morph the image to make it look like the shovel handle was pushing up into her chest.

Goofs:

Crew or equipment visible: When Ernest is looking at the picture in front of the mirror, the top of a crew member's head is clearly visible moving in the bottom left corner of the mirror.

Quotes:

[about his wife]
Ernest: Is it up yet?

Enjoy Goldie, Meryl and Bruce in this spectacular piece of art!

Death becomes her has a really good idea: what would it be like to live forever, stay young and beautiful? I don´t consider this movie gives an answer to that, but it represents one over-exaggerated view - a particularly well-carried out view. Goldie Hawn and Meryl Streep make an unique performance and fit perfectly to their roles. Interesting was also to see Bruce Willis in so different kind of movie I have used to see him. The plot was a little bit too easy to guess beforehand, but I didn´t mind. Just great!
