The movie was shot in under 21 days.
The logo that John Malkovich has in their tracksuit is "Naranjito" the oficial pet of football championship celebrating in Spain in1982.
The cute night-time meet in the supermarket with the girl having a question about wine at the beginning of this movie surely got inspired by Absinthe Makes the Heart Grow Fonder (2007), where there is a scene, also at the start, with a similar ostensibly innocent inquiry about which wine the girl should buy.
