Trivia

Loosely based on the marriage and divorce of director Peter Bogdanovich and his ex-wife Polly Platt.

Share this

Sharon Stone's character is modeled upon Cybill Shepherd, a former lover of Peter Bogdanovich.

Share this

The expensive flop musical that the Ryan O'Neal's character makes as a vehicle for Sharon Stone's character is a thinly veiled reference to At Long Last Love (1975), the expensive flop musical that Peter Bogdanovich made as a vehicle for Cybill Shepherd.

Lucy Van Patten Brodsky: That bimbo stole my husband! They drank their lover's wine in glasses I stood in line to buy!

Casey Brodsky: Mother, you and dad for a long time did not recognize my rights as a human being. You both treated me like chattel. You cannot do with me as you please anymore. We have irreconcilable differences.
