Bright Lights
In a 2011 interview with "The A. V. Club," David Hyde Pierce said that it cost him more to join the Screen Actors Guild (so that he could appear in this movie) than he was paid for his role, so he had to borrow the dues money from his agent. His character's name was "Bartender at Fashion Show", and his one line was, "Sorry, the bar is closed.",During Jamie's story of his relationship with Amanda to Megan his wineglass goes from half-full to empty in less than two seconds, while he's speaking.,Ferret Man: Wanna buy a ferret?

Words & Music by Shannon Dawson & G. "Love" Jay,I didn't like it originally and it's still a no. I didn't read the book, but I'm sure it was better or the movie wouldn't have been made. The biggest problem for me is Michael J. Fox. Not his acting chops. I just can't accept him as a seedy guy. Not then and most certainly not now. The more appropriate person was cast as his co-star. No problem seeing Kieffer Sutherland struggling with some demons. Plus this film just reminds me that even as a teenager of the eighties, I really don't have much fond nostalgia for them. And, this film makes a point of calling out many of its shortcomings.,
