Trivia

There's a double-barreled New Wave homage in one scene, where the Widow Hippolyte character is seen loading a shop van with advertising on the side for "Les parapluies de Cousin Jacques," with a street address in Cherbourg. The shop information refers to director Jacques Demy, playing on the title of "Les parapluies de Cherbourg (The Umbrellas of Cherbourg);" the actress loading the van is Agnès Varda, Demy's widow.

Goofs

Errors in geography: At the airport in Paris, Joshua says to Regina that they are now in another country. However, their only previous meeting was in Martinique. Whilst located in the Caribbean, Martinique is an overseas department of France. Thus, they are still in the same country as where they met before. See more »

Regina Lambert: I'm very touched. You are actually quite sweet for a stars and bars company man, aren't you?
Lewis Bartholomew: You've discovered my secret side Mrs. Lambert. Keep it under your hat. Boo!
