Trivia
After its initial screening at the Cannes Film Festival, Fox Searchlight gave Emma-Kate Croghan another $400,000 to give the film a bit of polish. (The film's original budget of $37,000 didn't allow for much in the way of post-production.) See more »Goofs
In the long drive with Mia and Alice in the car, the weather outside is bright sunshine when the camera is on Alice but dull (perhaps) cloudy when it is on Mia. See more »Quotes
Mia: Don't ask because I'll be forced to bore you to death with the details of my tortured existence.See more »
I always seem to love these good ol' Aussie comedy movies. This one is no exception. "Love & Other Catastrophies" is no doubt a great film. Without fail it delivers laughs all the way through, and most times its very easy to identify with all of the characters. I strongly suggest this movie for a video night with a few friends, pizza & beers, that is if you're over 18 :)
OVERALL : 4.5 / 5
