1 plot hole
Directed by: Nancy Meyers
Starring: Mel Gibson, Marisa Tomei, Helen Hunt, Alan Alda, Lauren Holly, Mark Feuerstein, Ashley Johnson
Continuity mistake: When Mel tries on the pantyhose, the hole in the left leg changes from large on the outside of his leg, to small with a run on the outside of his leg to large on the inside of his leg. (00:25:45)
Alex: Oh please, Mom had this talk with me when I was like, 11.
Trivia: The fictional childhood of Nick, growing up in a burlesque club surrounded by beautiful, nearly naked women who adored him, is bizarrely similar to the actual childhood of Alan Alda, who plays the boss character. Alan Alda's father ran a burlesque club, and apparently the strippers and dancers treated the young Alda as a mascot, even keeping him in the changing room as they got dressed. However, as an adult Alda became an activist for feminist causes, rather than the chauvinist effect it had on the fictional Nick.
