Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaLoosely based on the marriage and divorce of director Peter Bogdanovich and producer Polly Platt.
- GoofsCasey argues with Lucy that she is 9 years old, when Lucy says that she is 8. Although the movie is trying to show how the parents neglect to remember her birthday, given that her date of birth is December 11, 1975, the Casey character would still be 8 at the time the movie was released.
- Quotes
Casey Brodsky: Mother, you and Dad for a long time did not recognize my rights as a human being. You both treated me like chattel. You cannot do with me as you please anymore. We have irreconcilable differences.

Featured review
Someone above said she's not real in this. I thought she was very real. Her closing comments to the court are priceless and truthful. Also funny and dramatic is star Shelley Long, who is sunk with bad hairstyles and colors throughout the film. Did she tee off the film's stylist? Ryan's excellent and looks hot. Sharon Stone's the funniest I've ever seen her. My favorite line: "Dammit, Dottie this Tab is warm! Really mother, for $600 a week I expect you to know the difference between hot and cold!" This film's comments on the Hollywood scene are great because Charles Shyer & Nancy Meyers have lived it. Underrated. DVD, please. p.s. Closing song is dated and maudlin, badly performed by Sinatra. Written by Peter Allen & Carole Bayer Sager. "You & Me (We Wanted It All)".
