Short description
Celeste Talbert is the star of the long-running soap opera "The Sun Also Sets." With the show's ratings down, Celeste's ruthlessly ambitious co-star, Montana Moorehead, and the show's arrogant producer, David Seton Barnes, plot to aggravate her into leaving the show by bringing back her old flame, Jeffrey Anderson, and hiring her beautiful young niece, Lori Craven.
What's left behind the scenes
- The voice of Adam on the answering machine, informing Celeste that he is leaving her, belongs to Kevin Spacey.
- Burt Reynolds (1936-2018) turned down the lead role because he was married to Loni Anderson at the time, and she stated that if he took the part, the entire Hollywood would make fun of her (as Reynolds had previously had a widely publicized romance with Sally Field, who played the female lead).
- Due to reshoots of some scenes in this film, Kevin Kline had to decline a role in Steven Spielberg's fantasy comedy 'Hook' (1991). That role was ultimately played by Robin Williams (1951-2014).
- Burt Reynolds (1936-2018) turned down the leading role because he was married to Loni Anderson at the time, and she claimed that if he starred in the film, all of Hollywood would laugh at her (since Reynolds had previously had a widely gossiped-about romance with the lead actress, Sally Field).
- The voice on Adam's answering machine, informing Celeste that he is leaving her, belongs to Kevin Spacey.
- The role of David Barnes, played by Robert Downey Jr., was originally written for a man aged 50, but director Michael Hoffman, with whom Downey Jr. had worked before, ordered the script to be rewritten and the character changed to match Downey Jr.'s age.
