* ''Film/MayDecember'': Gracie sleeping with the thirteen-year-old Joe, bearing his child in prison, and marriage to him in the 90s are strongly inspired by the real life case of Mary Kay Letourneau and her rape and eventual marriage to Vili Fualaau, her sixth-grade student, from the same time period. The line "who [was] the boss, who [was] in charge", [[spoiler:said by Gracie when Joe tries to discuss the power imbalance of their relationship for the first time]], is even taken directly from an interview with Letourneau and Fualaau.

The other player is Aaron Williams (Andy Samberg), who is basically an over-the-top version of Andre Agassi.
