Interesting facts

Production
Roemer conceived the film as a reaction to a production house employee who claimed he didn't know how to write; he structured it with a restricted cast and setting so that he could ultimately finance it independently, without relying on producers. The writing process took about one year and a half, and the film was shot in Post Mills, Vermont. It had a budget of about $600,000.
