Trivia

• The release date for the film was pushed back after the similarly-themed Chasing Liberty (2004) flopped at the box office. This movie flopped even harder.
• Vera Wang designed all of Katie Holmes’ ballgowns for this film. (Her originals usually retail for over $10,000 each.)
• There is a scene where Samantha climbs down a ladder in bare feet. In the DVD commentary, Katie Holmes remarked that she was able to do only a single take because the rungs hurt her feet so badly.
