Trivia
This was a surprising hit in Italy, where it was released under the slightly more intriguing title of "Brief Fling with a Corpse."

Quotes
Marjorie Turner: It wasn't sex. It was good!

Alternate versions
In a scene only shown on cable, right before Harry tells Marjorie he thinks his brother didn't commit suicide, Nick shows up at the Turners' house and he and Marjorie talk about how guilty they feel, although it was neither person's fault. Then Marjorie explains that she doesn't want to leave her husband because she is afraid of being alone.

Black Comedy gem.......

Enjoyable on several levels, "Sibling Rivalry" is the type of black comedy that can withstand the test of time. In other words the lively script will never seem dated. The cast is uniformly excellent, and the dark subject (adultery caused death cover-up) is terrific material for this type of comedy. Bill Pullman absolutely steals the movie with a character similar to the one he played in "Ruthless People" If you enjoy dark comedy then this is a must see. Carl Reiner has come through with another winner that is perhaps under the radar, but deserves to be seen. It will definitely hold up to multiple viewings, which is only one sign of "Sibling Rivalry"'s excellence. - MERK
