Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaWhen Fritzi reintroduces herself to Jill at the start of the movie and Jill fails to remember her, Fritzi reminds Jill that the previous summer, they had been in the play "'night, Mother" together. The joke is that "'night, Mother" only has two actors in it, and is an extremely intense, wrenching, emotional experience (it is about an adult daughter preparing her elderly mother for the fact that the daughter is going to commit suicide), so there is no way that Jill could have forgotten having already met Fritzi without Jill being incredibly self-absorbed.
- GoofsWhen Fritzi insults the fat girl they are discussing casting of "Promises, Promises", but that had already been settled earlier. The same problem comes up during what appears to be auditions for "Follies", which was also already settled (during the cast sheet montage, we see that the role of Carlotta, who they are singing for, has already been cast).
- Quotes
Bert: I'm gonna call it off.
Glen: I think you'd better.
Fritzi: Wait!
Bert: Fritzi, what in the hell are you doing here?
Fritzi: Well I... I knew you'd be discussing stopping the show and I just thought how disappointed all the kids would be after...
Bert: You scheming little bitch!
Fritzi: Oh please! I'm a child.
Bert: If you think for one...
Fritzi: Oh save the speech, rummy. She's fucked, I'm ready, and the goddamn show must go on. So let's get cracking, shall we?
- Crazy creditsMidway through the credits, Fritzi and Patrick are shown playing Martha and George in an adaptation of "Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?"
