- TriviaBen Affleck signed onto the film with the belief that it'd support his brother Casey Affleck in his first leading role, while he played a small uncredited role. He was surprised to see his name in the trades as a headline for signing onto the film.
- GoofsAlthough apparently set on New Year's Eve 1981, numerous automobile designs that were introduced well after 1981 are visible in various shots.
- Quotes
Jack: Look, what happened between us last night is like this ongoing problem with me. It happens all the time: I meet someone, we go home together, but then the next day it's...
Cindy: What? Next day what?
Jack: Well, they tell me that suddenly they've developed these feelings for me.
Cindy: What are you saying, that every woman you go home with falls in love with you or something?
Jack: Yes! It's like a curse! It never ends!
Cindy: A woman falls in love with you and you think that's a curse?
Jack: You have no idea!
Cindy: No! I don't! Because I think you're lucky! I mean, there are some people who wait their entire lives for somebody to tell them they feel that way about them, and you, you just throw it away like it's nothing, like it's a minor inconvenience! Well let me tell you something, Jack, you are cursed - just not the way you think you are.
- Crazy creditsAt the end of credits Disco Cabie can be heard saying, "If you only remember one thing I've said, remember this; James Brown is the baddest motherf@cker in show business."
