Trivia
When Anne Fine was approached to make a movie out of her novel, her original choice for the lead role was Warren Beatty. Because of Beatty's reputation as a great womanizer she thought it would be hysterical to see him dress up and pretend to be a woman. See more »Goofs
Errors made by characters (possibly deliberate errors by the filmmakers): When Mrs Doubtfire gets her own children's TV show at the end, she asks the puppet, "Do you know what language they speak in England", and the puppet says "Pakistani?". Pakistani is not a language, the national language of Pakistan is Urdu (among other provincial languages like Punjabi, Sindhi, Pushto, etc..) The word Pakistani only refers to the people and culture of Pakistan, there is no language by the name of Pakistani. See more »Quotes
