ā¢ The role of Joshua's young sibling was played by the real-life newborn sibling of Jacob Kogan.
ā¢ The note that Joshua leaves for his father reads: "Dad,/Eaten lunch already/and gone to/The Brooklyn Museum of Art/having fun with Nunu and Lily." If you arrange the first letter of each line in order, it reveals an acrostic for "Death."
ā¢ The Cairn family home videos actually were shot by Sam Rockwell, using a camcorder owned by director George Ratliff.
