| Trivia | J M Sinclair's oft repeated remark that great writers steal derives from a statement generally attributed to T S Eliot that "Good writers borrow, great writers steal". See more » |
| Goofs | Liam rips up the manuscript of his novel and throws the pages in the lake, where they float on the surface. In the next scene at the lake, there are no traces of the pages on the water's surface. Given the number of pages it's likely that at least some of the manuscript would still be floating in the water. See more » |
