    Storyline

    Did you know

    • Trivia
      The hand that is seen with the BB lodged between its knuckles is not Ben Stiller's, but Andrew Wilson's, brother of Owen Wilson and Luke Wilson. When they were children, Owen fired a BB gun at Andrew's hand and the BB has been there ever since.
    • Goofs
      Artist Elliott Puckette's name is badly misspelled in the credits (her paintings appear in the film).
    • Quotes
      • Royal: Anybody interested in grabbing a couple of burgers and hittin' the cemetery?
    • Crazy credits
      The film title first appears on a library book being checked out, then several of the books are seen, and finally the book cover becomes a title card.
    • Alternate versions
      The version shown at the New York Film Festival and some other pre-release screenings used the original Beatles version of "Hey Jude" for the opening introduction. The final version used a new instrumental recording of the song arranged by Mark Mothersbaugh and performed by his Mutato Muzika Orchestra.
