In one scene, a movie director named Robert Rodale treats Kam Heskin's character harshly. In the commentary track, Jenny McCarthy and her then-husband, director John Mallory Asher, said Rodale was intended to represent director Kevin Smith. McCarthy had auditioned for Mallrats, and felt he had treated her very rudely. Asher then sarcastically complimented Smith for 'Gigli' (mistaking it 'Jersey Girl,' both of which featured Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez.) Smith's story of the audition is on his podcast, 'Smodcast' episode #82.
The only movie written by Jenny McCarthy.
The sign on the door to the auditions reads "Quite please"
