Fairuza Balk's exclamation, "Does anybody remember laughter?" is a reference to an additional lyric Robert Plant (of Led Zeppelin) would often insert in live performances of "Stairway to Heaven". See more »Goofs
Anachronisms: 1967: Double yellow center striping is valid, but yellow dashed striping isn't. These wasn't introduced until late 1971. Even in summer 1973, finding yellow dashed road center striping was still rare as it took several years to change them over from white. See more »Quotes
