Ok, I'm confused, I just watched this again after many, many years (off the finally-released (and very average quality) DVD) and was certain that in the subway scene Linda K plaintively wailed out "Crocodile!!!". Why? Because they edited the film in the office next to where I used to work (Victoria Street, Abbotsford, Victoria, Australia) back in the mid-'80s and I recall hearing that wail over and over and over and over and over and over again through the not-thick-enough walls.
So, has the film been tampered with for DVD, or is my ageing brain going faulty? Or did they just torture us with a scene that didn't even make the final cut???
Cheers!

I'm going to add another question in here.
Yes, I love the ending of this movie as well. I just watched it today after a long time of not seeing it. I realized the guy in the subway at the end (beard, red bandanna, not the construction worker) looks very familiar. His voice is making me nuts, I know I have seen him in other stuff before. And while it seems to me that he is a crucial part of this movie, I don't see him in the credits here on imdb.
Can anyone tell me who this guy is and what other movies he is in??? -

I missed the ending.
I wrongly assume the time it was going to end.
Although i researched a bit for the guys name here in imdb and googling it,trying out different key words,but to no avail.
Now im thinking,i do know that guy too,although it might just be ive seen Crocodile a few times in the 80's,i might just know him from Crocolide dundee. -

I too thought I recognized him, and I think I've got him figured out.
Could he possibly be Dennis Haysbert, who also played 'Pedro Cerrano' in "Major League" a couple of years later?
e/t/a I've learned that he is Sullivan Walker; he is listed in the credits as "Tall Man".
Here's a link to his IMDb biography

Being a New Yorker, I love that part even more, because thats exactly how New Yorkers used to be, and some still are. Every time you see the pedestrians cheering him on, or when they are helping him to walk above them to Sue, it brings tears to my eyes because that's how good old fashioned New Yorkers really are. That's what we're about.

It's a very nice way to wrap up the movie in a feel good way without going too far over the top. Just the right mix of silliness and class! I really enjoyed this movie, a lot more than I thought I would given the predictable nature of the plot.
I'm surprised it was written by a fellow Australian, to be honest O_O
