1* AwardSnub: It's amazing Creator/PaulDooley wasn't even nominated for Best Supporting Actor at the UsefulNotes/{{Academy Award}}s, as his performance anchors the whole movie.
2* SugarWiki/AwesomeMusic: If you're a classical music fan, there's quite a collection of great music on the soundtrack, from Mendelssohn's Symphony #4 in A Major (nicknamed the ''Italian'') to the overture of Rossini's ''Barber of Seville'' and, as mentioned on the main page, "Martha".
3* TearJerker: Dave crying on his father's shoulder after [[spoiler: the Italians knocked him out of the race]], and Ray's confused attempts to comfort him. Doubles as a SugarWiki/{{Heartwarming Moment|s}}.
4-->'''Ray:''' I didn't want you to be this miserable. A little bit's all I asked for. Talk to him, Evelyn. (''Evelyn can't speak because she's crying'')
