This was Dolly Parton's theatrical film debut. In preparation for her role as Doralee Rhodes, she not only committed to memory her own part, but the parts of every other role in the film. Apparently, the two experienced starring actresses, Lily Tomlin and Jane Fonda, burst out laughing when Parton let on that she believed that pictures were filmed in the chronological order of a film's script.
Dolly Parton accepted the role with the condition that she would write and sing the theme song, which was nominated for an Academy Award and won two Grammys. Parton made the same deal for almost every other movie, in which she has starred. The exception was Steel Magnolias (1989), which declined to use the Parton-penned song "Eagle When She Flies".
The first female-dominated film to gross $100 million dollars.
Apparently, Dolly Parton was cast because Jane Fonda and Lily Tomlin felt that she would "bring them the West." Parton was both a lead actress (along with the other two) and sang the title song, "9 to 5," which was Oscar-nominated and won two Grammys. In an interview with Isaac Mizrahi, Parton states that when she wrote and performed the theme song to Tomlin and Fonda, she used her long acrylic nails to create the beat of the song.
Producer Bruce Gilbert recalls the first time Parton arrived with the title song "and played it on her fingernails." She sang it 'a cappella' and played the beat on her nails. "You gotta have falsies to do this," adds Parton, "and the nails have to be artificial as well."
"[a candy-striper, with a 'Buffy' nametag, approaches Violet who's hauling a dead corpse on a gurny under a sheet] Buffy: Excuse me. Could you tell me where the coffee shop is? Violet Newstead: [nervous tone] The what? Buffy: The coffee shop. Violet Newstead: The coffee shop? No, I'm new here, I don't drink coffee. Buffy: I'm new here too. Where do you work? Violet Newstead: Uh... downstairs. Buffy: In the morgue? Violet Newstead: [nervous tone] Yes, that's right! Buffy: [looks at the body on the gurny] How did he... ? Violet Newstead: Coffee... too much coffee. I'm just taking him out for some air. Uh, I mean fresh air for me, he's just coming along for the ride. [Buffy gasps] Violet Newstead: *What?* Buffy: Oh, you're a doctor! I'm sorry, I didn't see your badge. [Violet looks at the badge and finally realizes that the white lab coat she's stolen is a doctor's] Violet Newstead: Oh yeah... I'm a doctor. So why the hell am I talking to you? Piss off!"
"Doralee Rhodes: Well, I say we hire a couple'a wranglers to go upstairs and beat the shit out of him."
