North/Trivia


 * Actor Allusion: The Amish couple is played by Alexander Godunov and Kelly McGillis, a reference to their roles in Witness.
 * All-Star Cast
 * Creator Killer: The career of Rob Reiner as a director has never recovered from this cinematic fiasco, which is pretty amazing considering his string of classics in the 1980s.
 * Doing It for the Art: Reiner wanted to create a touching, personal fable; his very own The Wizard of Oz.
 * Hey, It's That Voice!: Governor Ho and Mrs. Ho, the Hawaiian parents, are played by Keone Young and Lauren Tom, who you might have heard in such cartoons as Hi Hi Puffy AmiYumi and Kids Next Door respectively. They were even in one show together, American Dragon Jake Long.
 * Magnum Opus Dissonance: As stated under Doing It for the Art, this was supposed to be Reiner's equivalent to The Wizard Of Oz. It wasn't.
