TRIVIA AND POPULAR DIALOGUES

Trivia

Screenwriter Laurice Elehwany said the film was inspired by a childhood friend that lived in a funeral home.

The house used as Vada's house was actually a bed-and-breakfast in Bartow, Florida. However it closed in 2013.

Jamie Lee Curtis instituted a swear can onset to prevent "trucker talk" as Dan Aykroyd called it. Aykroyd said in an interview "It was $5 for this word and $10 for another word and by end of the movie the kids had about five grand in there."

Anna Chlumsky and Macaulay Culkin took 15 takes in their kissing scene.

The willow tree that is seen throughout the movie is not a willow tree. Due to issues finding a perfect pond with a willow tree by it, the creators had to find a different tree, remove all of its branches, and replace the tree's branches with fake willow tree branches.

Popular Dialogues

"Vada: [after Vada and Thomas kiss] Say something, it's too quiet. Thomas J. Sennett: Umm, ummmmm... Vada: [agitated] Just hurry. Thomas J. Sennett: I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America... Vada, Thomas J. Sennett: ...And to the republic for which it stands, one nation, under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all."

"Thomas J. Sennett: Vada? Vada Sultenfuss: Yeah? Thomas J. Sennett: Would you think of me? Vada Sultenfuss: For what? Thomas J. Sennett: Well, if you don't get to marry Mr. Bixler. Vada Sultenfuss: I guess."
