| 1 | * HilariousInHindsight: |
| 2 | ** Tenoch thinks about Creator/SalmaHayek during the masturbation scene. Later in 2002, Creator/DiegoLuna had a brief sex scene with her in ''Film/{{Frida}}''. |
| 3 | ** The film is about the eventual break between two close friends. The [[Creator/DiegoLuna two]] [[Creator/GaelGarciaBernal costars]] would become instead the best of friends and found an independent film company together. |
| 4 | ** There is some irony in the fact that the very next film Creator/AlfonsoCuaron made was the family-friendly ''Film/HarryPotterAndThePrisonerOfAzkaban''. Although good directors should be flexible enough to handle a wide variety of material, it was noted at the time the Potter film was released that it was rare to see directors move from one extreme to the other immediately. Adding to the irony is that, given Cuaron had only directed a few films in his career and the last major one before ''Tambien'' was back in 1998, the producers of the ''Harry Potter'' film must have hired him based upon this film. He had however done the family-friendly ''Film/ALittlePrincess1995'', which was both a critical darling that got two Oscar nominations and utilised a cast of majority child actors, so that likely played a bigger factor. |
| 5 | * RetroactiveRecognition: Maribel Verdú was a well-known model and indie actress in Spain of course, but would later be far more recognisable as Mercedes in ''Film/PansLabyrinth''. |
| 6 | * WhatDoYouMeanItsNotPolitical: The movie took place just after many, many cases showing social injustice in UsefulNotes/{{Mexico}}. Chuy is the most heartbreaking. Oh, and Tenoch has an Aztec name (indicating nationalism) but is circumcised (indicating Americanization). |
