Short description
A socially awkward and volatile small business owner meets the love of his life after being threatened by a gang of scammers.
What's left behind the scenes
- The film's plot was inspired by an article in "Time" magazine about civil engineer David Phillips, who purchased 12,150 pudding cups for $3,000 using special coupons and earned the right to free air travel totaling 1.25 million miles.
- The actors playing the four blonde brothers pursuing Barry and ultimately beating him are actually brothers in real life.
- Sean Penn was originally slated to play the role of Dean Trumbell, but after being forced to decline, he was replaced by Philip Seymour Hoffman.
- Director Paul Thomas Anderson wrote the screenplay specifically with Adam Sandler and Emily Watson in mind.
- Harry Nilsson's song "He Needs Me," which became the film's musical theme, was taken from the 1980 film "Popeye," featuring Robin Williams and Shelley Duvall.
