Quotes
Blanche:
What do you think of when you play? What goes through your mind?
Emmet Ray:
Yeah, that I'm underpaid. I think about that sometimes.
Goofs
The guitar that Emmett destroys at the end of the movie is (thankfully) not a genuine Selmer Maccaferri. The shattered fragments clearly show a bolt-on neck. The genuine instruments used a bolt during construction, but this bolt was removed before the guitar was completed, leaving an empty hole. (The instrument actually destroyed was a disposable prop created by Michael Dunn.)
