Trivia
Several bits from the trailer do not appear in the finished film. These include Nancy pulling a gun on Jack (and the resulting dialog of her asking, "What kind of girl do you think I am?" with Jack replying, "The kind of girl who had a gun on me thirty seconds ago," and Nancy saying "Yeah, but I didn't SHOOT you..."); Nancy and Jack actually getting into the car as they steal it (she playfully says, "Let's make out!" and Jack replies, "Eaaasy..."); a couple shots of Jack and Nancy kissing; Jack and Nancy on a skateboard; and finally Jack making a playful growling sound.
The finished PG-13 rated film appears to have a great deal of censoring from what was probably originally cut as an R film. As such several "f" words are overdubbed with much less strong words (with their mouths visibly saying something else). Also, it appears the romance between Jack and Nancy had been toned down slightly by removing scenes and moments that appear in the film's theatrical trailer.
Nancy tells Jack that he's "all right in a sort of a limited way for an off-night", a line from "I Know What I Know" from Paul Simon's "Graceland" album.
While Jack and Nancy are skinny dipping and the car is being towed, Nancy is behind Jack. In the next shot of the car being towed, she is a couple feet in front of him. In the next shot she's back behind him.
