Quiz
During 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.

Citazioni
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?

Curiosità sui crediti
At 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'.

unknowable nature

Gabriella D'Arc (Jennifer Connelly) left the semester for her sick granny and hasn't returned. Michael (Patrick Dempsey) is overjoyed to be invited to meet her family in Quebec City for her birthday over Christmas. Her eccentric atheist father writes in the nude. There are her sisters Simone and Irenka. Irenka's boyfriend is handyman Nick. They're joined by Father Walter, Gabby's religious mother's former love. Michael is discombobulated after quickly insulting Gabby's mom by expressing sympathy and Gabby telling him that, "I'm not in love with you anymore." It's a week of strange family drama. Granny is delusional and thinks that he is her husband Michael.

This is a cold movie and I don't mean the snowy Quebec City. Jennifer Connelly is an enchanting mercurial presence. I don't like her character in this movie. Patrick Dempsey is a pathetic puppy chasing after her. While I don't like his character either, I certainly understand him. Damn, the girl is hot, but most of this movie leaves me cold. It's definitely not actually funny. It's the unknowable nature of women and it leaves me unsatisfied.
