- Cast the Runner-Up: The movie originally intended to have Arnold Schwarzenegger for the role of Vinnie while Steve Martin played Barney. However, Schwarzenegger was busy with Kindergarten Cop at the time, so Martin took the role of Vinnie while giving his original role to Rick Moranis.
- Completely Different Title: In Sweden, the movie was named How I Taught an FBI-agent to Dance the Marengo. It was re-titled The Foolish Captive in the Netherlands, due to the fact that a Dutch movie with the exact same title was released the same year.
- Dueling Works: With GoodFellas, a mob movie that also focuses on the life of Henry Hill. While My Blue Heaven does have its fans and is considered a minor Cult Classic, GoodFellas was ultimately the victor since it was a critical and commercial success.
- What Could Have Been: John Travolta was offered the role of Vinnie, but he turned it down to do Look Who's Talking Too.
