Did You Know?
| Trivia | Feature film debut of Michael J. Fox, who was cast because the movie was shot predominantly at night and they needed an actor who was over 18 but could pass for 15. The studio heads were initially unconvinced, so they did makeup tests to make him look as young as possible and then did a photo shoot in which he was placed next to the tallest cast members. This did the trick and landed him the job. See more » |
| Goofs | When Harold types the first clue into the computer, his hand movements over the keyboard don't even come close to matching the words appearing on the screen. See more » |
