Did you know
- TriviaAram Nicholas is a fictionalized version of film director Peter Bogdanovich. Bogdanovich was dating Dorothy Stratten around the time that they collaborated on They All Laughed (1981). In this film, the title of that collaboration was changed to "Tinsel Time". This was due to Bogdanovich threatening to sue if he was unhappy with how he was portrayed. Although, all the other films she appeared in had their names changed too, like Skatetown U.S.A. (1979) to Ball Bearings and Autumn Born (1979) to Wednesday's Child.
- GoofsWhile Paul harangues Dorothy about her upcoming trip to New York while she soaks in the bathtub, her face and hair are alternately wet/dry between shots.
- Quotes
- Dorothy Stratten: Playboy's motto is: the girl next door. They look for girls that are wholesome and fresh and young and naive. They look for all of that. So, most of those girls do - have that type of background.
- Crazy creditsThis film is dedicated to Paddy Chayefsky.
- Alternate versionsABC edited 12 minutes from this film for its 1987 network television premiere.
