Second theatrical movie role of Jim Carrey, the first being All in Good Taste (1983).
On an episode of "The $25,000 Pyramid", John Schuck says that the movie he is in is entitled THE NEXT-TO-LAST TRAIN RIDE, which is what the story upon which it is based is entitled. The movie had not been released at the time, so the title had not yet been changed.
The film was released ten years after its source novel was published.
Michael O'Keefe turned down the opportunity of working with Jack Lemmon, playing the young priest in Mass Appeal (1984), to do this movie. The part was cast with Zeljko Ivanek.
This movie was filmed in January, February, and March 1984.
"Michael Rangeloff: That's an expensive watch! Pawnbroker: So take off the clothes and put on the watch. See how many restaurants you get into."
"Mayor Frizzoli: [Frizzoli shows up at his sister's farmhouse frantically looking for her] Anna-Marie! Anna-Marie! Anna-Marie! Anna-Marie Biddlecoff: [gathering eggs from a chicken coop] What? Mayor Frizzoli: Where the hell are you? Anna-Marie Biddlecoff: What is it now, Mario? Mayor Frizzoli: You left the front door open, again. Where the hell is he? Anna-Marie Biddlecoff: He's out back. Mayor Frizzoli: I told you to keep him in the HOUSE! Anna-Marie Biddlecoff: Well, he's helping me. I got to do all the work myself, you know, since you made me fire everybody. Mayor Frizzoli: I had to fire everybody so they wouldn't know he was here! [Lane appears from behind playing with a toy airplane] Lane Biddlecoff: Hello, Uncle Mario. Mayor Frizzoli: Shut up. All right, now, listen to me, the two of you. There's a train arriving here in a couple hours. Lane Biddlecoff: What train? Mayor Frizzoli: And on that train is Lane Biddlecoff's body. Lane Biddlecoff: But I'm Lane Biddlecoff. Mayor Frizzoli: [slaps Lane across the face] Didn't I say shut up? Anna-Marie Biddlecoff: What are you talking about? Mayor Frizzoli: There's a stiff showing up here with your idiot son's name on it. Anna-Marie Biddlecoff: What? Mayor Frizzoli: That's right. He's no longer a living deserter. Now, he's a dead hero. Anna-Marie Biddlecoff: There must be some mistake. Mayor Frizzoli: Of course, it's a mistake, but the point is, we're the only ones who know it! Now look, when the stiff shows up, we do a bit at the railroad station, have a five-minute parade, then zap, it goes in the ground, zap, we cover it up, then we stick the moron here on the first banana boat to Venezuela. Lane Biddlecoff: How come I got to go to Venezuela? Mayor Frizzoli: Because you didn't have the sense to get killed! Anna-Marie Biddlecoff: That is your nephew that you're talking about! Your own sister's son! Lane Biddlecoff: I don't want to go to Venezuela! Mayor Frizzoli: You should have thought of that before you deserted! Lane Biddlecoff: I wouldn't have deserted if you would've kept me out of the draft. Mayor Frizzoli: [angrily] WHAT DRAFT? YOU'RE ENLISTED! Lane Biddlecoff: [chuckles] Oh, yeah. That's right. Mayor Frizzoli: Jesus, what a NITWIT!"
