Trivia

Of the four primary leads, two were trained at NYU Tisch and Lee Strasberg and two were trained in the Meisner technique as classmates at the Beverly Hills Playhouse, so while the cast does experiment with Mid-Atlantic techniques and Method acting, the cast is primarily a Meisner-trained group, which lends to the more classical, mid-century style acting in the movie.
