After a Newsweek reporter interrogated David O. Russell with aggressive questions he didn't want to answer, he decided to invent a story about using a real corpse in the bullet scene. "I said that we used an actual corpse ... and we had only one take using a high-speed camera to get that bullet going right through, and the toughest thing was getting a light in there," he told Creative Screenwriting. "So he writes the thing up, and the next thing, the morticians' association is calling Warner Brothers, and protesting the unethical use of a corpse. It was kind of fun. Harmless." Russell further explained to news outlets that the rumor was false. "The intention (of the shot) was to make it look like a bullet going through a corpse. It would be unethical to use a corpse like that. To achieve the effect, we had to build a prosthesis."
