TRIVIA AND POPULAR DIALOGUES

Trivia

Meryl Streep accidentally scarred Goldie Hawn's cheek with a shovel during the fight scene.

At one point, Lisle asks Madeline how old she thinks she is. Madeline answers 38, and Lisle gives her a dirty look. Isabella Rossellini was 39 years old at the time of filming.

A pneumatic bra was built to create the effect where Meryl Streep's breasts become higher and firmer after drinking the potion, but the effect didn't look realistic enough. In order to get the shot, Streep's dresser stood behind her, out of sight of the camera, and pushed her breasts into position.

This was the first film that used photo-realistic human skin software.

The scene where the "resurrected" Madeline confronts Ernest, Meryl Streep had to wear a blue screen hood over her head while walking backward.

Popular Dialogues

"Madeline Ashton: Bottoms up! [Madeline drinks the potion] Lisle Von Rhoman: Now, a warning. Madeline Ashton: NOW a warning?"

"Madeline Ashton: Wrinkled, wrinkled little star... hope they never see the scars."
