The names of the film's director and lead actress are the reverse of each other: Adam Brooks and Brooke Adams.
First of two 1980s cinema movies about ''yuppies'' starring actress Brooke Adams; the other was 1985's "Key Exchange." Both are romantic comedies that were shot in New York and were made and first released in consecutive years.
The period of principal photography on this picture had a shoot that ran for about 25 days.
Star Griffin Dunne became aware of a treatment for this movie during production on the then recent John Sayles film 'Baby, It's You' (1983) according to an article published in the January 1985 issue of 'Vanity Fair' magazine. Adam Brooks had written a treatment for 'Almost You' when he was working as a script supervisor on that movie and it was brought to the attention of Dunne.
In 1985, the film won the Special Jury Prize at the Sundance Film Festival.
