During the interrogation scene, Miles’s lines, as performed by Macaulay Culkin, were written on a piece of paper attached to Uncle Buck’s head, played by John Candy. This was done so that the actor wouldn’t remember his lines, but would read them, which is always faster. This way, the filmmakers maintained the fast-paced, tense rhythm of the scene.
Practically all the sets (including the sets for the Russells' two-story house) were built in the gymnasium of a local school.
The sound of the engine knocking in Buck's car is a gunshot sound layered over the explosion of a firecracker.
Buck's car, which he calls "The Beast," is a two-door Mercury Marquis. This model was produced between 1975 and 1978.
The role of Uncle Buck was offered to Joe Pesci, but he turned it down in favor of filming Martin Scorsese's gangster film "Goodfellas" (1990).
