TRIVIA AND POPULAR DIALOGUES

Trivia

Bill Buell's dance during "Love Smiles" was choreographed on the spot by director Cory McAbee by shouting things like "show us your karate, Bill!" and "the birds are attacking, Bill!"

When the alarm goes off: "What did your father teach you?", Curtis has to answer "My father taught me to kill the sunflower," which was something Cory McAbee once mistakenly thought someone said to him.

The costumes for the women of Venus were made from shower curtains.

The DVD includes a very unusual "Director's Comments" feature. Cory McAbee showed the movie in a Brooklyn pool hall, and had a question-and-answer session with the audience while the movie was screened. The audio recording of his interaction with the audience replaces the standard movie audio when the comments feature is selected.

According to the DVD director's commentary, moviegoers would come up to Cory McAbee during film festivals and ask where he got the Old Man to recite the "donut" joke, not realizing it was Tom Aldredge.

Popular Dialogues

"Old Man: Hey. Is it just me, or do my balls itch? Samuel Curtis: I think it's you. Old Man: Good. For a minute, I thought my balls itched."

"Samuel Curtis: Mind if I use your bathroom? Eddie: Sure... It's a real toilet, so be careful."
