Directed by: Penny Marshall
Starring: Drew Barrymore, Steve Zahn, Brittany Murphy, Adam Garcia

Beverly: You want my permission to use a small amount of heroine forever?
Trivia: Adam Garcia is two years older than Drew Barrymore, who plays his mother in the film.
Question: When Bev drives to meet Ray to have him sign a waiver so her book could get published, Ray tells Amelia that Bev was his first wife. Since Bev and Ray never got divorced, isn't she still his first wife and his marriage to Amelia null and void?
