ADD TRIVIA
- The line "Think about it. He's only nine." has been poorly dubbed. (The words actually spoken -- "Think about it. He's only seven." -- applied to Kurt Doss, the actor originally cast in the role of "Gus.") The new audio matches neither the surrounding dialogue nor the corresponding lip movements.
  EDIT SHARE
- Rachelle Lefevre is miscredited as "Rachael."
