- Citazioni
George: Brian, why don't you give coffee writing a try? You know, we're not all big, bad prostitutes. You might even get to like it.
Brian: Thanks, anyway, George, but, well, you understand.
George: Sure. I could understand if you were getting anything out of your great efforts.
Brian: George, I have to love what I'm doing--intensely.
George: What's the matter, advertising isn't good enough for your talents? There's a lot of satisfaction in my work. At least, every time I write something, I know millions of people are going to read it. That's more than read Shakespeare.
Brian: I don't care about how many people read it. I care what it says.
George: Well, maybe you're just kidding yourself, Brian. And what does it get you? Look at you, your age, no money. Just a waiter in a coffee shop.
[Brian gets up and storms off angry]
- Versioni alternativeThe 1982 Astron Enterprises Corporation release of this black-and-white film adds a color framing sequence featuring early eighties' scenes of people milling about Washington Square Park in Greenwich Village accompanied by a song performed by Hugo and Claudette, a harpist and a guitar-playing vocalist. On-screen titles read, "The Way It Is Now... And the Fun It Used to Be!" A color shot of the Washington Square Arch transitions to one in black-and-white and on on-screen caption, "Back When Everybody Loved Country Music, Lovin'--and NO Violence!" After the original film ends, the closing color sequence includes what appears to be a cameo by the grown-up Kimberly McKeever, sipping on a Teem soda just as she did as Kimmie in the film. The opening titles and primary credits are in color over the black-and-white film. The closing credits and dedications are completely redone in color over an aerial view of Washington Square Park and the surrounding city.
