Trivia, insights & behind the scenes

Trivia

This was Kate Hudson's first film after Almost Famous—she used her own terrible Irish accent to distance herself from Penny Lane.

Insight

Director Gerard Stembridge later called the film 'a feminist critique of the charming male lead' that audiences misunderstood as endorsing Adam's behavior.
