  • Lili Taylor is ruled ineligible because she appears in too many scenes.
  • Piven, Stoltz, and Mike Cameron are the initial finalists.
  • Stoltz’s bird-costume role grew from his request to work as a production assistant and learn filmmaking.
  • Joan Cusack’s small son is added for tracking the household action with an unusually effective child performance.
