- Harold Remis is also an actor and screenwriter in the film, and the film is also Harold Remis's performance debut.
- Director Ivan Reitman once said that the relationship between the protagonist John and his friend Russell is based on Murray and Remis.
- Actress Thors recalled that when she first met Remis at the audition, she was amused by him.
- Murray was regarded by the crew as the "most difficult factor to control" because he always came up with new ideas and played on the spot just before the filming. And Remis would encourage Murray to give it a try whenever he thought of any funny ideas from the starting point, for which he once called himself "Murray's Muse."
- The film was the starting point for Remis and Murray's cooperation. The friendship between the two ended in 1993 when they filmed "Groundhog Day."
