TRIVIA AND POPULAR DIALOGUES

Trivia

Martin Sheen originally suggested Michael Douglas or Mel Gibson for the lead role, but Emilio Estevez had written the main character's role specifically for his father.

In an LA radio interview on "The Busted Halo Show with Father Dave", Emilio Estevez revealed that much of the inspiration he got for this film was the identical pilgrimage that his father Martin Sheen and his son Taylor Estevez made a few years before on the Camino de Santiago de Compostela in Spain. Estevez' son, then 19, fell in love, moved to Spain, and got married a few years later. Since that trip, Martin Sheen and Emilio Estevez spoke often of how they could make a film about the pilgrimage until an idea surfaced.

When one takes the 500 mile Camino de Santiago, they carry a scalloped shell with them as an identity. Emilio Estevez was given such a shell by a man who made that journey six times. When he made the journey while filming the film, he kept the shell with him.

The characters Joost, Sarah and Jack represent the Cowardly Lion, the Tin Man and the Scarecrow from The Wizard of Oz (1939). Each character has something in common with them. Jack is found near the stacks of hay and "hasn't had an original thought in days." Sarah, the Tin Man, has a broken heart and has been searching for love most of her life. She also has a lot of mechanical device (metal) such as an iPod and cell phone. Joost is big like a lion but doesn't have the courage or the will power to stay healthy.

This is the seventh time that father-son Martin Sheen and Emilio Estevez have worked together.

I've been having trouble, the last few weeks Joost: I have some Ambien... or perhaps you'd prefer something stronger? Sarah: [shouts ahead to Tom] I love this man! Tom: It wears off quickly, I promise you"
