Trivia / Anything Else

• Playing Against Type: Woody Allen's character is basically the opposite of the usual Allen role. He's a violent, gun-toting, car-smashing, career-oriented hot-head who advises his charge to go to L.A. and leave New York City far behind.
• Star-Derailing Role:
  • Jason Biggs' only leading roles since this movie failed (coupled with Saving Silverman also bombing) were in the American Pie sequels. He bounced back with Orange Is the New Black, though.
  • After this movie, Woody Allen would not do a movie where he took acting, writing and directing credits again until 2012 (except for an acting role in Scoop), though he averted Creator Killer and remained in the latter two areas during this time.
