TRIVIA AND POPULAR DIALOGUES

Trivia

First major Hollywood studio picture directed by Ron Howard.

Early screen roles for Kevin Costner and Shannen Doherty. Costner as a frat boy in the morgue party scene (a non-speaking bit part), and Doherty plays a "Blue Bell" (liken to a "Girl Scout") in an elevator scene (with one line).

Breakthrough and first starring role of Michael Keaton.

The annoying saxophone player on the subway is director Ron Howard.

Henry Winkler took the role of the wimpy morgue director to play a character opposite of the macho Fonzie character. "I thought I'd play Richie Cunningham for once," he said on Twitter.

Popular Dialogues

"Chuck Lumley: As we sit here and idly chat, there are woman, female human beings, rolling around in strange beds with strange men, and we are making money from that. Bill Blazejowski: Is this a great country, or what?"

"Bill: What are we really talking about here? Huh? What's the essence of what we're talking about? Spell it out for you if I have to. [writing on chalkboard] Bill: PROSTITUTION! Prostitution. Yeah, we can say it. We're big kids now, right? You know a lot of times it'll help you to understand a word if you break it down, so let's do that now, shall we? PROS... it doesn't mean anything. Forget about that... TIT, I think we all know what that means. TU, kay two tit and TION, of course, from the Latin to shun... to say no, uh-uh, thank you anyway I don't want it, to push away... it doesn't even belong in this word really, so let's get rid of that."
