Trivia
Melanie Lynskey was Jamie Babbit's first choice to play Hilary after the director had seen her in Heavenly Creatures (1994) and Ever After: A Cinderella Story (1998). Additionally, Lynskey had already worked with Natasha Lyonne (Megan) in Detroit Rock City (1999).
Quotes
Megan:
You didn't tell me you were taking me to a gay bar!
Graham:
Well, where else would we go?
Goofs

Alternate Versions
Two scenes were removed from the movie to obtain a "R" rating. The two scenes were:
- There was a much more longer version of Megan masturbating.
- The sex scene between Megan and Graham was toned down because it was much too explicit and would have caused the movie to receive a "NC-17" rating.
