Did You Know?
Trivia | Two key lines in the film have no intertitles, the viewer having to lip-read them. About 64 minutes into the film Kate reveals to Philip, "Philip, I am going to have a baby." Four minutes later she reveals to her husband Pete, "I am going to have a baby". See more » |
Goofs | (at around 1 min) Philip puts his right hand in his pocket, but it is not in the pocket in the subsequent shot. See more » |
