Trivia
The entire cast reprised their roles from the stage production that played on Broadway at the Martn Beck Theatre in 1982. Director Robert Altman also directed this stage version.

Goofs
Though pains were no doubt made to ensure that the "mirror-image" flashback set for all 1955 scenes appears to be the exact opposite of the set for 1975 scenes, packaging for the many GE light bulbs stored on a back shelf in 1955 are not reversed as they should be (though the large GE sign above is correctly reversed).

Quotes
Juanita: Well, you ain't bringin' beer in here.
Sissy: Could you just, um, turn God off for tonight and have yourself a good time?

Crazy credits
Behind the closing credits, the camera pans around the abandoned building. We hear the wind blowing, with doors banging in the background.

Very Good

I was very glad to have watched this movie. It was both interesting, and compelling. The acting was superb, by Cher, Sudie Bond, Kathy Bates, and especially, Sandy Dennis. Karen Black was sensational in her role. What a great cast! And the story itself was great, also.
