    Storyline

    Did you know

    • Trivia
      One of the many films during the mid to late 1980s which Patrick Dempsey played a teen or a late teen /adult which included Heaven Help Us, Meatballs 3, Can't Buy Me Love, Loverboy and Happy Together which came out a year later
    • Quotes
      • Nick: You know, I've never been faithful to anyone in my life. I just told Irenka about someone and, uh, she did not take it too well. If there's trouble, I just feel trapped and miserable, and I just wanna' go.
      • Michael: If you have to choose between grief and nothing, you'd choose grief.
      • Nick: [scoffing] Huh. What's that gotta' do with anything?
      • Michael: Just something William Faulkner said.
      • Nick: Yeah, well, fuck that. This is me we're talkin' about. I'd choose nothin'. Grief's fucked. It's just depressing when these things end, you know?
    • Crazy credits
      At the end of the credits, the final black and white MGM logo stencil (just before the final live-action MGM logo with the lion) says 'Sisters From Metro Goldwyn Mayer' ('Sisters' in italics). This may indicate that the movie might have originally been titled 'Sisters'.
