Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Keke Palmer was 15 during filming; her scenes with Spacey (who insisted on method-adjacent distance) reportedly required chaperones and created genuine on-screen tension.
Released months before Spacey's own public reckoning, the film's themes of hidden dysfunction and performed respectability now read as almost prophetically uncomfortable.
