* BreakawayPopHit: While this movie was given mixed reviews by critics and mostly forgotten after it came out, one of the songs on the soundtrack - Quietdrive’s cover of [[Music/CyndiLauper Cyndi Lauper’s]] "Time After Time" - is still played on radio stations today, and to date is the band’s only charting song.
* DawsonCasting: All of the main cast, though to differing degrees. Creator/BrittanySnow who played the lead character Kate was 20 when the film was released and probably 19 when it was filmed and Creator/ArielleKebbel (Carrie) was only a little older. At the other extreme Creator/JesseMetcalfe, who played John Tucker, was 28 at the time.
