Trivia

Originally intended as a direct spoof on Casablanca (1942), it was changed to a more original story.

Rick never says, "Play it again Sam," in Casablanca (1942) and, contrary to a popular rumor, the line does not appear in this film, either. The quote was often ascribed to the dialogue from the Humphrey Bogart film.

Ronald Kornblow: Well, gentlemen, I'm a different man behind a desk - as any stenographer can tell you. But, uh, what I want to know, is why they're burying the last manager. And don't tell me it's because he's dead.
