- QuizThis movie is based on a book by Ben Stein of Una pazza giornata di vacanza (1986) fame. The book, published in 1983, is titled "'Ludes: A Ballad of the Drug and the Dream" and is about the abuse of Quaaludes (methaqualone) rather than cocaine as in the movie. Supposedly based on a friend of Stein's who met his ruin through the abuse of Quaaludes in the 70's and 80's, the action in the movie follows almost exactly the action of the book, even down to some of the dialogue.
- BlooperWhen Lenny and Linda are in the pool, we see Linda from behind, and her wet hair is completely swept back behind her right ear, but as the camera angle changes to a front view, her right ear is now half-covered with wet hair.
- Citazioni
Max: [Max has discovered that Lenny put a check in Max's safety-deposit box, after "borrowing" $20,000 from the Century West Maintenance account, so that Lenny could treat Linda to a night in Las Vegas] A worthless goddamn CHECK?
Lenny: What are you getting hysterical about? It was just a LOAN.
Max: In all my life, I never treated ANYONE like I treated you! You were POOR; I made you RICH. You were DROWNING; I gave you a YACHT! And then you STOLE from me. After I treated you like a son. TWENTY THOUSAND DOLLARS!
Lenny: You want another check? I'll write you another check right now.
Max: A check is no damn good. You want to be a liar as well as a thief?
Lenny: Then tell me what to do. Just tell me, Max.
Max: [hugs Lenny, then speaks softly] You gotta go. I can't have you around here anymore.
