TRIVIA AND POPULAR DIALOGUES

Trivia

Michelle Pfeiffer was pregnant during production. Although shot out of sequence like most films, it becomes apparent when methods are used to hide the actress' stomach. Methods such as long skirts and bulky sweaters along with scenes where Pfeiffer is shown carrying large objects were used.

Originally entitled "My Posse Don't Do Homework", the name of the book from which this true story was taken.

Released under Michelle Pfeiffer's production company, the movie's success bolstered Pfeiffer's reputation as an actress/producer.

Andy Garcia's scenes as Louanne's love interest were filmed but cut.

A running gag involves confusion between two lyrical men of words: Dylan Thomas and Bob Dylan. The similarity between the two names is not coincidental, as the latter adopted his performance name as a tribute to the former.

Popular Dialogues

"Hal Griffith: How'd they get you to stay? Louanne: They gave me candy and called me their light. Hal Griffith: That'll do it."

"Louanne: What should i tell them? If they dont want to die remember to knock?"
