Originally intended to be a story featured in the TV series Amazing Stories (1985). Steven Spielberg liked the idea so much he decided to make it a theatrical release.
The black-and-white photos of Frank and Faye used in the opening credits were real-life photos of Hume Cronyn and Jessica Tandy, who were married for decades.
After this movie, Jessica Tandy and Hume Cronyn would appear in only three more movies together. Their last film, Camilla (1994), was released two months after her passing.
The line, "We bring good things to life " was the hook for General Electric consumer products ads. "Don't leave home without it," was used in ads for American Express credit cards.
The jazz music heard at different points throughout the movie can also be heard in "Cocoon: The Return (1988)," which also star Hume Cronyn and Jessica Tandy.
"Frank Riley: The quickest way to end a miracle is to ask it why it is... or what it wants."
"Pamela: It's old and depressing! Mason: It's reality! Pamela: This is the '80s, Mason. Nobody wants reality anymore."
