    • Trivia
      Cavanagh and Graham have both appeared on the US sitcom "Scrubs"--separately, and they never share any scenes.
    • Goofs
      Heading for dinner at Raoul's, Gray gets out of Gordy's cab at the intersection of Seventh Avenue and something; regardless of where that something is, it's not the SoHo intersection of Prince and Sullivan Streets. In fact, that far south, Seventh Avenue is actually Varick Street.
    • Quotes

      Sam: What are you doing?

      Gray: I want to die right now. I never want to see another human being as long as I live.

      Sam: You're just coming out.

      Gray: I am never coming out of this elevator.

      Sam: This is probably the biggest revelation of your entire life. It's normal to be going nuts. It's normal.

      Gray: I don't feel normal. I'm sick and tired of everyone saying it's normal, it's typical, it's ordinary. I don't feel any of those things.

      Sam: Well how do you feel?

      Gray: Lonely.

      Sam: Why?

      Gray: Because I'm never going to be able to walk down the street, holding hands with my partner without the rest of the world giving us a look. And me never have the wedding that I once dreamed of and I may never have children. And one day when I die people will never give as much respect to my grieving lover as if she were my husband.

      Sam: Gray, it's not as if you made a choice.

      Gray: That's what terrifies me. It's so much easier to be someone else.

    Moving Comedy/Drama
    On the surface this may seem frivolous, a light, somewhat implausible comedy with affable characters. A girl lives with her brother. She finds herself attracted to his fiancé,and irony ensues. It is, in that respect, a bit formulaic. However, Graham gives a very moving, underrated performance here. I considered myself liberal enough. I favored civil unions, but that was all. I succumbed to the generalization that it was a reasonable compromise. But, I watched a girl crying in an elevator, relating to her brother that she couldn't be GAY because she could never have a normal life. She could never marry. It changed my mind. That is a performance worthy of note.
