- GoofsThe sign at the border of Tres Cruces is misspelled as Tres Crucas.
- Crazy creditsAs the credits roll over the freezeframe of the curtain call, Long and Midler can be heard bickering about Long's performance in the play.

Featured review
In the 80s it just felt like this was how they made movies, but there's a very specific feel to the era that can't be recaptured, and a limited supply of gems like this, so it's always great to stumble on one you've been missing. All the trademarks are in place, from the clothes to the music to light hearted nature of the whole endeavour. Bette and Shelley play up the characters they'd been type cast with all decade and stumble through a series of zany situations. It's all simple fun and an endearing time capsule.
