Uma Thurman's brother, Dechen Thurman, was the bookstore clerk who commented on what a great body she had.
Janeane Garofalo, a shade over five feet tall, sometimes had to stand on a box just to be in the same frame with 6-foot co-star Uma Thurman.
Janeane Garofalo has been quite vocal about how unhappy she was with the film. Initially it was an independent film, but it was turned into a big-studio project when Uma Thurman signed on. Garofalo remarked,"I think it's soft and corny. The soundtrack makes you want to puke. And everybody's dressed in Banana Republic clothing. The original script and intent was very different. It was supposed to be a small-budget independent film, with a lot more complexity to the characters. When it became a studio commercial film, Abby and the guy wind up together at the end." Garofalo has since disowned the film, calling it anti-feminist.
In the scene where Uma Thurman and Janeane Garofalo are in the bookstore, Bob Odenkirk and David Cross are in the background looking at a large shelf of books.
Although this is Janeane Garofalo's first starring role, Uma Thurman naturally got top billing because she was a much more famous name, even though she only gets half the screen time Garofalo does.
"Brian: You know how someone's appearance can change the longer you know them? How a really attractive person, if you don't like them, can become more and more ugly; whereas someone you might not have even have noticed... that you wouldn't look at more than once, if you love them, can become the most beautiful thing you've ever seen. All you want to do is be near them."
"Dr. Abby Barnes: If I was a guy, I think women would, like, line up to go out with me. I'm smart. I have a good sense of humor. I make a great living. Noelle: I'd fuck you. Dr. Abby Barnes: Thank you, honey. I know you would."
