1* AwesomeDearBoy: Lee Toland Kreeger found Anthony Ingruber online doing a Creator/HarrisonFord impression on Website/YouTube and, upon hearing that he's also an actor, called him up to ask him "how would you like to play your idol and make out with Creator/BlakeLively?" Some fans have called for him to star as a young Franchise/IndianaJones and [[Franchise/StarWars Han Solo]] in future films. Unfortunately, it’s an unwritten rule in Hollywood that you "never cast an imitator," so it will most likely never happen. (But it actually did [[Film/IndianaJonesAndTheDialOfDestiny end up happening]], sort of...)
2* BillingDisplacement: Creator/HarrisonFord is second billed and does not appear until an hour into the film. Both Creator/MichielHuisman and Ellen Burstyn feature far more in the film than he does.
3* TheDanza: Kathy Baker as Kathy Jones.
4* FakeAmerican: Creator/MichielHuisman is Dutch playing the American Ellis. Anthony Ingruber is Canadian playing the American William's younger self.
5* HideYourPregnancy: Creator/BlakeLively was two months pregnant by the time they finished filming, so she had to do very little to hide it.
6* PlayingAgainstType: Creator/BlakeLively is usually some form of MsFanservice or EveryoneLovesBlondes. Here she plays a lonely and withdrawn [[TheWoobie Woobie]] who can never grow older and must watch her friends and loved ones die.
7* SeparatedAtBirthCasting: Anthony Ingruber was cast precisely because he looked like such a young Creator/HarrisonFord. He even managed to fool people into thinking Ford dubbed his voice. He's just that good as a soundalike.
