• Creator's Favorite: When Leo McCarey won the Oscar for Best Director for The Awful Truth, he said, in effect, "thank you, but you gave it to me for the wrong film."
• Hollywood Old: Both Victor Moore and Beulah Bondi were middle-aged when they played the elderly Coopers (Lucy is stated to be seventy, and Barkley is likely around that age or even older.)
