Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaDuring the opening and closing credits, the music is from W.A. Mozart's Serenade # 13 for strings in G Major, K. 525, better known as "Eine Kleine Nachtmusik". In addition, the music during the scene where Michael is helping Granny out of her wet clothes and then again during several subsequent scenes involving Granny is a re-write of a portion of the 1st movement from Beethoven's Piano Concerto # 5, also known as the "Emperor" Concerto. It is uncertain why this went unmentioned in the movie's credits, as if James Newton Howard was the original composer of this music.
- 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 creditsAt 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'.

It's just a movie, it's not going to reach out and change you or make you see God or anything. You will have to do that yourself. But it does draw you in anticipating a standard farce and instead getting a reflection on desire, wishes and the true definition of a life well lived.
There's plenty of teeny skin-and-blood (both original and new Irony-flavored) flicks out there, rent those if you want to be cool like everyone else. If you want to spend some time musing about a movie after you see it, rent this.
