Down With Love

Trivia: The ending song scene, during the credits - singing wasn't strange to either of the actors: Zellwegger had a leading role in Chicago, and McGregor in Moulin Rouge, movies where they had several song scenes. In fact, the scene was only added at the insistence of the actors.

Trivia: The MAD Magazine Catcher Block reads with a parody of 1960s feminist Barbara Novak on the front was created specifically for the movie. A special 1960's-style cover was drawn by one of the MAD artists.

Trivia: Near the beginning of the film, Catcher Block makes the remark that Barbara Novak didn't sound like a blonde over the phone. As it turns out in the end, Barbara was not a natural blonde at all.

Factual error: David Hyde Pierce mentions the Cuban Missile Crisis, which took place in October 1962. The time of year in the movie isn't entirely clear, but given the weather conditions it's almost certainly spring or summer, or several months before the Cuban Missile Crisis.
