    • Trivia
      In an early draft of the script, writer-director Rae McGrath specified the frequency of the radio station Mel Cobb listens to as "1610 AM"; however, after William Brown, who played Cobb, researched and advised McGrath of a 1997 decision by the U.S. Federal Communications Commission (FCC) expanding the uppermost limit of the AM radio frequency to 1700 kHz from its prior cutoff of 1600 kHz, the fictitious station's frequency was changed (at Brown's behest) to "1720 AM."
    • Quotes
