Production notes

In an interview with Gay Star News, writer James Duff said the network didn't want Jim Carrey cast because he wasn't the "right guy", because of being a comedian. But after seeing his audition, Duff stated "he was amazing...his claim to fame is his comedy genius. I’m not sure people know that he’s got these sort of dramatic chops.

Duff, who is openly gay, said the movie was "a very personal story and I was trying very hard to make it a universal story, not just about the nature of coming out. It is about denial in our culture and how denial keeps us from dealing with human truths – with our humanity.
