• The movie was described as "Romancing the Ghostbusters in the Temple of Doom."

• Acting and performing music come from the same place, but each requires a slightly different technique," said Cyndi Lauper "To play Sylvia, I had to learn to tone everything down. I'm used to things being exaggerated and larger than life-you know, the eyes going back and forth-because those things work in a big concert hall. To perform for a movie camera, you have to be capable of a certain stillness. That's something I've learned here that I enjoy very much."

• In her memoir, Cyndi Lauper states that she and Jeff Goldblum did not get along during production.
