Filming started the day before Thanksgiving, making those working on the film unable to return home for the holiday, so the cast and crew had Thanksgiving dinner in the home where the interiors were shot.
This movie had 3 generations and 4 members of "Green Cinematographer's Family": Jack N. Green, Peter N. Green, Ryan Green and Nikolas Green.
Exterior shots of the Paramount Theatre and Temple De Hirsch Sinai are both in Seattle WA
