    Storyline

    Did you know

    • Trivia
      Mark Ruffalo was originally cast in Signs (2002), but left the film prior to shooting due to the discovery of a brain tumor. Ruffalo dreamt he contracted the tumor during shooting of Signs, which provoked him to visit a doctor. The tumor was benign, but Ruffalo took nearly a year to recover and lost hearing in his left ear. Production of Signs moved forward, and Joaquin Phoenix took Ruffalo's spot.

      At 1:21-1:22, when Ethan is in Luke's room and sees a picture of Luke and Dwight it is a horizontal picture. Yet when he picks it up, it is a vertical picture. There is only that one horizontal picture on the dresser.
    • Quotes
      • Grace Learner: Mrs. Wheldon was wondering if you'd like to play in the school concert. Maybe practice with her after school. You don't have to do anything you don't want to do.
      • Emma Learner: Can you hear music if you're in Heaven?
      • Grace Learner: [pauses] Yes.
      • Emma Learner: Okay, then. I'll do it.
