History YMMV / LOL

* FridgeBrilliance: In the American remake, the locker room scene reveals Emily is wearing a pair of [[FlowersOfFemininity flowered]] [[Main/GoofyPrintUnderwear granny panties]]. When her friends tease her, she states that these undies are all her mom will buy her (revealing her underwear drawer at home is likely full of [[UncoolUndies granny panty underoos]]). While this may just seem like a throwaway line to show how [[HelicopterParents controlling Em’s mother is]] (and thus [[StrictParentsMakeSneakyKids why Emily acts out]]), there’s actually a bit more thought put into it. Emily’s mom knows her daughter is in high school and would like to date, and she also knows she wouldn’t ALLOW her daughter to date, meaning Em would have to sneak around with any boyfriends (which does end up happening later on). As such, she was taking precautions in the best way she could think of: if her daughter DID have a secret boyfriend, she’d be too embarrassed by her dorky, childish underwear to get her pants off with the guy.

* SpiritualSuccessor: To ''La Boum'' (1980), particularly since both films star Creator/SophieMarceau (although in very different roles). [[SameFaceDifferentName Were the names of the characters not different]], this movie could even be seen as being about [[KidHeroAllGrownUp a now-adult Vic]] trying to raise a family.

* HarsherInHindsight: At one point Jocelyn Quivrin's character states that he doesn't need to wear a helmet while riding a motorcycle. A year after the film's release, Quivrin was killed in a car accident at just thirty years old.

* ValuesDissonance: The different stance toward teen sex and sexuality in general couldn't be more stark between French original and American remake.
