Deep Dive

Trivia, insights & behind the scenes

Trivia

This was director Nisha Ganatra's feature debut before she directed episodes of Transparent and Brooklyn Nine-Nine. The 4.8 TMDB rating is brutal but fair.

Cultural

The interracial romance between Heather Graham and Taye Diggs was barely commented on in 2005 marketing, which was either refreshingly casual or quietly dismissive depending on your read.
