TRIVIA AND POPULAR DIALOGUES

Trivia

Premiere voted this movie as one of "The 25 Most Dangerous Movies".

Philip Seymour Hoffman based his character (Allen) off of Ralph Reed; the founder of the Christian Coalition, and a Republican politician. During a run in with Ralph, he told Philip that his favorite movie was Happiness. Little did Ralph know, he was Allen.

This film received a sequel in 2009, "Life During Wartime", in which every returning character was played by a different actor.

Jack Black was considered for the role of Allen.

Philip Seymour Hoffman and Ben Gazzara are both in this film, but do not share any screen time. The same year (1998), they were both in The Big Lebowski, where they also shared no screen time.

Popular Dialogues

"Bill: I wake up happy, feeling good... but then I get very depressed, because I'm living in reality."

"Andy: You think I don't appreciate art? You think I don't understand fashion? You think I'm not hip? You think I'm pathetic? A nerd? A lard-ass fat-so? You think I'm shit? Well, you're wrong, 'cause i'm champagne, and you're shit. Until the day you die, you, not me, will always be shit."
