Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaElements in the opening diner scene matching Norman Rockwell's famous September 20, 1958 Saturday Evening Post cover illustration "Runaway" include the red hobo pack, the white-clad counter man, the white vertically ribbed wall, the Specials chalk board, the chrome bar stools with green cushions, the coffee maker on right, the pie case on left, and the wall mounted radio. Appropriately added for the film is a Kellogg's display. In the Rockwell painting, Seinfeld's place is taken by a police officer who suspiciously eyes the little runaway.
- GoofsThere is a Mustang parked on the curb while John F. Kennedy was still President. This was not possible as the Mustang came out in 1964.

Featured review
This a really funny film but the drawback is that the references are all so specific to the early 60's (with a few anachronisms) that a lot of younger reviewers will have their hair parted by the sheer volume of jokes going over their heads. They can however enjoy the stacked cast (loved Bill Burr as JFK) and I dare I say that it manages to redeem some actors like Amy Schumer and Melissa McCarthy who have been in the cultural doghouse for quite some time. The script is packed with all sorts of wild ideas and sometimes even gives some food for thought. What at first seemed like a silly idea for a story reminded me that that's what comedies are and the script had so much detail that I was reminded of all sorts of movies from Blake Edwards to Willy Wonka. Thanks Jerry for making an actual comedic movie - something I haven't seen in a long while.
