Question: Did Joe kill the guy in the hotel that he stole the money from?
Answer: Probably not. The man was a masochist who derived sexual pleasure from being physically abused. Joe apparently crammed the phone receiver into the man's mouth and left, unknown if he died from it or not.
Revealing mistake: When Dustin Hoffman dies at the end of the film, if you look closely at his chest you can see him breathing.
Cass: You were gonna ask me for money? Who the hell do you think you're dealing with, some old slut on 42nd Street? In case you didn't happen to notice it, ya big Texas longhorn bull, I'm one helluva gorgeous chick.
Trivia: The most famous line in this film is purely ad-libbed. Apparently a tough New York cabbie broke through and drove across one shoot, nearly running down Jon Voight (Joe Buck) and Dustin Hoffman (Enrico Salvatore "Ratso" Rizzo). Notice Voight's startled expression. Hoffman, still in character, slams on the hood and shouts at the cabbie, "Hey, I'm walkin' here. I'm walkin' here."

Answer: Coconut.
No, we see them trying to break the coconut (and failed miserably) after Ratso made that dish (and it looks like some kind of stew, probably made from the tomato we saw them steal at the same time they stole the coconut, and green peppers).
