For the scene in Mirabelle's bedroom where the cat jumps on the bed and watches her and Jeremy, there were actually two cats used. The director explains in his commentary that one could jump but never watched, and the other was good at watching but couldn't jump.
Steve Martin had Tom Hanks in mind to play Ray Porter, but as the film's development progressed, he felt he was better suited to play the part since he was so familiar with the work.
Jimmy Fallon was cast as Jeremy but dropped out before filming began.
Claire Danes took her clothes off for Mirabelle's first love scene with Steve Martin's character, a moment that left the actress uneasy. A friend told her, "It's good you're doing it at 25. When you're 80, you'll look back on this and think, I was pretty firm, so there's that," Danes said. "It was uncomfortable, I have to say, but I did think that it was relevant and useful," Danes said. "Also, it's erotic. There's no reason to pussyfoot around that. I thought it was vital, so I stripped."
During her 2001 arrest for shoplifting, Winona Ryder told a security guard at the Saks Fifth Avenue department store in Beverly Hills that her stealing was merely part of her preparation for a role in the film.
"Ray Porter: As Ray Porter watches Mirabelle walk away he feels a loss. How is it possible, he thinks, to miss a woman whom he kept at a distance so that when she was gone he would not miss her. Only then does he realize that wanting part of her and not all of her had hurt them both and how he cannot justify his actions except that... well... it was life."
"Mirabelle: Ray, why don't you love me? Are you just biding your time with me? Ray Porter: I thought you understood. Mirabelle: So, I can either hurt now or hurt later."
