Short description
Ten years after their divorce, Jane and Jake Adler unite for their son's college graduation and unexpectedly end up sleeping together. But Jake is married, and Jane is embarking on a new romance with her architect. Now, she has to sort out her life—just when she thought she had it all figured out.
What's left behind the scenes
- Streep applied to the administration of Vassar College to allow filming the film's finale there, but was refused, despite being an alumna and a member of the Vassar board.
- All scenes with Steve Martin had to be filmed in the first two months of shooting, as he was going on a solo tour afterwards.
- The role of Jane was written specifically for Meryl Streep, who was delighted with the script.
- In the film, Meryl Streep's character jokes about Alec Baldwin's character, saying he's old and will be almost 80 years old when his child graduates. Shortly after filming wrapped, Baldwin got married and had several children in that marriage. By the time his youngest children graduate, he will be over 80 years old.
- John Krasinski landed the role of Hurley in the film thanks to his work on the series "The Office," which Nancy Meyers enjoys.
- In the scene where Meryl Streep answers a call from her daughter, played by Caitlin Fitzgerald, Alec Baldwin's character kisses her, and she says "You’re still on the phone" in surprise (meaning “You’re still on the line”) instead of “You’re still on the plane.” The actress genuinely made a mistake because she didn’t expect her scene partner to kiss her, but he did so at the direction of director Nancy Meyers. Fortunately, Streep was able to play off the mistake and salvage the scene, so it didn’t need to be reshot.
- Stripe requested permission from the Vassar College administration to film the movie's finale there, but she was refused, despite being a graduate and a member of the Vassar board.
- Harley owes her role in the film to John Krasinski's work on the series 'The Office,' which Nancy Meyers enjoys.
- In the scene where Meryl Streep's character answers a call from her daughter, played by Caitlin Fitzgerald, Alec Baldwin's character kisses her, and in surprise she says, 'You’re still on the phone' instead of 'You’re still on the plane.' The actress actually made a mistake because she didn't expect her co-star to kiss her, which he did under the direction of Nancy Meyers. Fortunately, Streep managed to play off the mistake and improvise, so the scene did not need to be reshot.
- All scenes featuring Steve Martin had to be filmed during the first two months of production, as he was planning a solo tour afterward.
- The role of Jane was written specifically for Meryl Streep, who was thrilled with the script.
- In the film, Meryl Streep's character teases Alec Baldwin's character, calling him an old man and saying he will be nearly 80 by the time his child graduates. Shortly after filming ended, Baldwin married and had several children. By the time his youngest children graduate, he will indeed be over 80.
