The main reason Jack Nicholson agreed to appear in this movie: he wanted to work with Meryl Streep.
Meryl Streep's daughter Mamie Gummer was used as Annie the baby.
Tony Shalhoub's first feature film role. Shalhoub had a love scene with Meryl Streep, but nearly all of his scenes were cut. Shalhoub can still be seen, though, as a passenger on a plane sitting behind Jack Nicholson.
Meryl Streep admitted on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon (2014) that her daughter Mamie Gummer was credited under the name "Natalie Stern". Meryl said that she had this done so that there would be no photographs of her daughter, because she was only around eighteen months old at the time of filming.
This movie doesn't make this explicit, but in real life, screenwriter Nora Ephron had been so upset by her husband's infidelity that she went into labor prematurely.
"Mark Forman: [taking a very pregnant Rachel to the hospital] Just keep breathing, you can do it. Rachel Samstat: [panting] I don't want to do it, honey. Can't we get somebody else to do it?"
"Mark Forman: It's just that there's no door to the kitchen. Contractor Laszlo: The back door. Mark Forman: The back door. Yes. It's true. You can get into the kitchen... through the back door. This, we know is a kitchen. But you can't get inside the house from the kitchen! Now, how the fuck did this happen? Rachel Samstat: Mark. For God's sake. Laszlo, we thought that you could put a door here. Contractor Laszlo: She's a piece of cake. He's a piece of cake. Rachel Samstat: It's a piece of cake. Contractor Laszlo: You are Hungarian? Rachel Samstat: No. You are Hungarian. Contractor Laszlo: Yes. Rachel Samstat: Yes. Hungarians have no pronouns. Mark Forman: Apparently they don't have fucking doors, either. Contractor Laszlo: She is very angry at me. Rachel Samstat: He is very angry at you. Yes."
