What's left behind the scenes
- The film is based on the comic strip series “Little Nemo in Slumberland” by Winsor McCay, which was published from October 15, 1905, to January 9, 1927. McCay is not mentioned anywhere in the credits.
- In Winsor McCay’s original comics, Flip is depicted as short and stout, with a cigar in his mouth. Overall, he gives the impression of a circus clown. Nemo in the comics is a boy.
- The seagull named Bugsy is a reference to the famous gangster Benjamin Siegel, nicknamed “Bugsy,” who was instrumental in transforming Las Vegas into a gambling capital. His story is told in Barry Levinson’s crime drama “Bugsy” (1991).
- Flip’s words, “Sometimes a pig is just a pig,” are a reference to the phrase attributed to Sigmund Freud: “Sometimes a cigar is just a cigar.” Literally in the following mise-en-scène, Flip mentions Freud himself.
- In the film, Agent Green (played by Veruche Opia) realizes that everyone in the Land of Dreams has their own personal nightmare. Nemo’s nightmare involves a giant octopus, which is a reference to Jules Verne’s 1870 novel, "Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea." The appearance of Kyle Chandler (playing Peter here) is a reference to James Mason, who played Captain Nemo in Richard Fleischer’s science fiction film "20,000 Leagues Under the Sea" (1954). Captain Nemo fought a cephalopod nautilus there, not an octopus.
