Trivia / The Computer Wore Tennis Shoes

• Dawson Casting: Zigzagged and downplayed. Kurt Russell really was eighteen when the movie came out, and the actor playing his classmate Bradley was nineteen, but most of the other Medfield kids were at least 21 (still of believable college age but maybe older than you'd expect to be hanging in a freshman's social circle) and Frank Welker was 23.
