Did You Know?
| Trivia | This movie was originally titled "The Hairy Bird". Miramax, the film's American distributor, found the title too offensive as it alludes to male genitalia, so they released the film under the alternate title "All I Wanna Do". In Canada and the United Kingdom, the film is titled "Strike!" Only the Australian release retains the original title. See more » |
