A sequel to Todd Solondz's movie Happiness (1998), but with entirely re-cast characters.
In an interview with People magazine, Allison Janney said she and Michael Lerner were almost injured during the filming of their sex scene. "We had to have sex up against a wall and they started spraying us with glistening stuff to make us look sweaty, but no-one seemed to realise that we were standing on a marble floor. They said 'Action' and he pulled me up against the wall and his feet slipped out from under him and he went crashing down on the floor. It was terrible, but it was one of those moments I'll never forget."
Title taken from the title of a song by Talking Heads.
This film is part of the Criterion Collection, spine #574.
Allison Janney had a clause in her contract stipulating that she would not do any nudity, but she choose to skip it for this movie because the nude moments she portrays she felt were really important for her character.
"Trish: Are you seeing anyone? Mark Wiener: No, I'm more focused on China. Everything else is history. It's just a question of time."
"Trish: So Mark, what do you do? Mark Wiener: Systems analysis. Trish: That sounds interesting. Mark Wiener: It is to me, moderately. Like intermediate level Sudoku; but I have no illusions that what I do is of interest to anyone else. Even among specialists I'm something of functionary, but without ambition, or even hope of ambition. I plateaued in grad school then lost interest except in maintaining a base salary adequate to financing a low overhead subsistence."
