    • Trivia
      Michael J. Fox was diagnosed with Parkinson's disease in 1990 not long before the filming of this movie began, when he noticed a small, but persistent, tremor in his left little finger. In various scenes he is seen with his left hand in his pocket; most likely to conceal the twitch.
    • Goofs
      Ben hands Lou a small bouquet of pink flowers, which she informs him are protected because they are the state flower. South Carolina's state flower is actually Carolina jessamine, which is a yellow flowering vine.
    • Quotes

      Nancy Lee Nicholson: Is that a star?

      Hank Gordon: No, that's Ted Danson.

    • Alternate versions
      For its original UK cinema release, one use of 'fuck' was removed in order for the film to receive a 12 rating. All video releases are uncut, upgraded to a 15 at first and lowered to a 12 in 2006.

    All the Good Things Michael J. Fox Represents.
    Entertaining little film that has Michael J. Fox on his way to Hollywood to take a job as a plastic surgeon. However, a freak accident causes his car to be wrecked in a small country town that he just cannot seem to get out of. Naturally his very expensive car needs special parts that are not available. Thus the townspeople try to get Fox to stay as the community doctor to take the place of the elderly acid-mouthed Barnard Hughes. While in town Fox locks horns with Woody Harrelson, becomes friends with the priceless Bridget Fonda (who has her eyes on Fox) and falls in love with ambulance driver Julie Warner. George Hamilton is also a real scene-stealer as the all-world plastic surgeon that Fox should be working with. A really good over-achiever that represents all the things that make Fox a likeable screen presence. Far from excellent, but a charming little production nonetheless. 3.5 out of 5 stars.
