a.
David Lynch
disowned the extended television cut. The name "Judas Booth" that appears as the screenwriter in this cut, is a combination of Judas, the apostle that betrayed Jesus Christ, and John Wilkes Booth,

The church seen at the beginning of the film, Church of San Miniato, is different from the one that Michael actually goes into when he sees Sandra.

This can be seen clearly when Michael goes into the church, which only has one door to enter into, and then in the next shot, where Michaels back is towards the door, and there are now two, and a windows on the doors that dont match the one that we saw on the outside shot.
