Todd Solondz spent his entire life's saving on making the movie because no studios would back it.
Heather Matarazzo turned down reprising the role of Dawn Wiener in this film.
As some characters' names are palindromes, this clever palindrome is trickier to catch. The exact second Dawn's videotaped funeral comes on screen, starting the film, in the upper right hand corner is the video's time. It clearly displays, 01.22:10 = a numerical palindrome, then continues counting down.
The names of the characters Aviva, Bob, and Otto are all palindromes - as per the title of the film.
"Mama Sunshine Aviva: Last year, our special daughter Nainika ran away and... she didn't even have any legs. She wanted to return to her birthplace in India. Poor child. She didn't even make it as far as India, Tennessee."
"Mark Wiener: People always end up the way they started out. No one ever changes. They think they do but they don't. If you're the depressed type now that's the way you'll always be. If you're the mindless happy type now, that's the way you'll be when you grow up. You might lose some weight, your face may clear up, get a body tan, breast enlargement, a sex change, it makes no difference. Essentially, from in front, from behind. Whether you're 13 or 50, you will always be the same. 'Mark' Aviva Victor: Are you the same? Mark Wiener: Yeah. 'Mark' Aviva Victor: Are you glad you're the same? Mark Wiener: It doesn't matter if I'm glad. There's no freewill. I mean, I have no choice but to chose what I choose, to do as I do, to live as I live. Ultimately, we're all just robots programmed abritrarily by nature's genetic code 'Mark' Aviva Victor: Isn't there any hope? Mark Wiener: For what? We hope or despair because of the way we've been programmed. Genes and randomness, that's all there is and none of it matters. 'Mark' Aviva Victor: Does that mean you're never going get married and have children? Mark Wiener: I have no anent desire to get married or have kids. But that's beyond my control. Really, it makes no difference. Since the planet's fast running out of natural resources and we won't make it into the next century. 'Mark' Aviva Victor: What if you're wrong? What if there is a God? Mark Wiener: That makes me feel better."
