- Award Snub: The film received two Academy Award nominations and won for Best Screenplay, but it wasn't nominated for Best Picture, Director or Actor.
- Harsher in Hindsight: Deanie tries to drown herself, but she's rescued. Natalie Wood died in 1981, when she fell off her yacht (which was named Splendor) and drowned.
- Retroactive Recognition: Sandy Dennis, in her film debut, briefly appears as one of Deanie's classmates.
