    Storyline

    • Trivia
      Alan Rickman read the script and actually suggested Sigourney Weaver for the role of Linda Freeman. He even telephoned Weaver, and told her she had to read the script, as there was a role he felt she could play perfectly in it. Rickman and Weaver had previously worked together in the film Galaxy Quest (1999), where Rickman's character was also named Alex.
    • Goofs
      In the film's beginning Alex exits the restaurant. In the window it says White River. He is driving to Winnipeg which is west of White River. However Vivienne has a sign that says Wawa. That means he would be heading east back to Wawa instead of west to Winnipeg.
    • Quotes

      Linda Freeman: B-A-A-N-G.

      Alex Hughes: You can't have two A's in bang.

      Linda Freeman: In Comic Book Word Scrabble, you can. You can have three A's if you want.

    • Crazy credits
      During the end credits, an occasional letter flakes off, morphs into a snowflake, floating off-screen.

    Beautiful
    This film is just a beautiful story that made me laugh and cry. Sigourney was just fantastic, have never seen her better. I was so lucky to meet her in Edinburgh where she did a 'reel life' interview about her career. Sigourney described how in depth she studied the role and was nervous about not being able to do it, which took her out of her comfort zone. All I would like to say is all the hard work was worth it. The scene where Linda dances at the wake just got my heart, I felt I was transported into Linda's world and you cannot ask more from a film.

    It was so good to see a film without ego, cgi or violence, just a gentle take on extreme circumstances. Please please please go see this film and even if it is just to find out what 'DAZLIOUS' means!
