What's left behind the scenes

  • At the beginning of the film, Mary Stuart Masterson herself plays the drums. In a 1988 interview, she jokes that she has been haunted by the same nightmare for years – drum lessons.
  • The film is named after the song of the same name, “Some Kind of Wonderful,” written by Gerry Goffin and Carole King, and first performed by The Drifters in 1961. In 1987, a cover version by The Blow Monkeys was released, which could have appeared on the film's soundtrack, but for unknown reasons, it did not.
  • John Hughes wrote the role of Keith specifically for Eric Stoltz.
  • Initially, Martha Coolidge was to direct the film. At Coolidge’s suggestion, actress Kim Delaney was to play Amanda Jones, and Kyle MacLachlan was to play Hardy Jenns. All three were fired at the last moment when Howard Deutch took over as director.
  • On Eric Stoltz’s advice, John Hughes and Howard Deutch hired Lea Thompson for the role of Amanda.
  • The school scenes were filmed during the summer vacation of 1986.
  • Lea Thompson felt she wasn't beautiful enough for the role of Amanda. In a press release, she noted: 'A lot in Amanda’s life depended on her appearance, and I can’t say that everything happens the same way in my life—so I tried to show her inner beauty.'
  • During the filming of the movie, director Howard Deutsch met actress Lea Thompson, although at the time the actress was having an affair with Eric Stoltz, however, two years later Thompson and Deutsch got married.
  • Eric Stoltz and Lea Thompson had been friends long before filming began, and in fact, it was Stoltz who persuaded Lea to take on the role of Amanda Jones—at that time, the actress was very upset about the failure and negative reviews of her previous work in the film 'Howard the Duck'.
  • Real houses were used for filming the homes of the main characters – most of them are located close to each other. When Amanda and Shane drive Keith home, Amanda explains how to get to his house from hers – following her instructions, you can actually get from one house used in the filming to the other.
  • Most of the bullies during their time serving their sentence were played by football players from local schools – these guys were chosen because they were much larger and looked somewhat intimidating against the actors.
  • Marta Coolidge was originally the director of the film. At Coolidge's suggestion, Kim Delaney was to play Amanda Jones, and Kyle MacLachlan was to play Hardy Jens. All three were fired at the last moment when Howard Deutsch took the director's chair.
