The meaning and relevance of this films Rough Cut title is that it refers to a jewelery term relating to the cut of a diamond. The term also can mean an uncompleted version of a movie though that is not what the phrase is intended to mean here. E-how define a rough cut gem stone as being "halfway between the mine and the showroom. Once the stone is extracted from the earth with varying degrees of difficulty, it is cut to show its potential. It can be sold at this stage on the open market but most often is moved along predetermined channels of business associates. The final cut is done to preserve size and enhance its sparkle or light reflecting qualities. The cut of a stone affects price but not as much as the innate quality of the stone . . . Fresh from the mine, it is often hard to see what all the fuss is about as gems tend to look more like any other rock then a sparkling jewel. After the mine, they are processed, meaning the rough points are removed to preserve as much size as possible at the same time showing their color and clarity potential. This is the first stage of market for the gem stone." The rough cut is a cut that precedes a final cut, the latter also being a film industry term relating to the finished version of a film.
