Did You Know?

Edit
Trivia The film heavily features the music of Melissa Manchester, as Clarke (Jeremy Dozier) is a big fan. The song "Rainbird" was actually co-written by Manchester and Mary Steenburgen, who plays Clarke's mother. See more »
Goofs The movie is supposedly set in 1987, but the cash the lead character is shown stealing in the trailer ($10 and $5 bills) is clearly modern U.S. currency featuring enhanced security features like large numbers and different colored inks - not bills from the 1980s. See more »

Quotes Danielle: I'm glad you're back.
Clarke: I don't know, I kind of miss that place
Danielle: Shut up!
Clarke: A school with no girls, I was *very* popular.
Danielle: [Smiling] You fucking whore! Remember, "nobody likes a dirty girl"!
