The last name of the family that the film is the focus of is White.
Filmed at Disney World and Disneyland without permission.
Due to the importance of lighting in a black and white film, the crew was sometimes forced to shoot certain shots in a six-minute window when the sun was directly in the right position. These shots were sometimes planned months in advance.
Director Randy Moore had the actors ride through the "It's a Small World" attraction 12 times to get one scene right.
Shot guerrilla style using 2 Canon EOS 5D Mark II cameras and 1 Canon EOS 1D Mark IV digital single-lens reflex camera, and shot in monochrome mode.
The mention of the turkey legs actually being emu meat is a reference to an old existing (though of course untrue) urban legend about Disney, borne out of the fact that the turkey legs are quite large.
