Stories from the set

Cameron Diaz's character, having arrived at the home exchange house, performs the song "Mr. Brightside" by the American rock band The Killers with a glass in her hand.

When Iris looks through Amanda's movie collection, you can see the film Enigma (2001), in which Kate Winslet starred.

Nancy Meyers always plays music for the actors on set that will later be heard in a particular scene, so they can better feel the moment.

Eli Wallach, who played Arthur Abbott, was 90 years old at the time of filming.

In the DVD store, Jack Black's character takes the 1967 film "The Graduate" from the shelf and shows it to Winslet's character, while Dustin Hoffman stands behind them casting sidelong glances. D. Hoffman played the lead role in that film.
