  • Timothy Hutton reportedly declined Joel for Daniel; Rob Lowe claimed he declined it, and Sean Penn, John Cusack, Kevin Bacon and Tom Hanks are among reported auditioners. One additional name is unclear in the transcript.
  • Michelle Pfeiffer reportedly declined Lana; Sharon Stone, Kim Basinger and Brooke Shields are named as alternatives, but the Basinger claim is treated skeptically.
  • The Michael J. Fox rumor is strongly rejected as a poor fit; Pfeiffer's fame and different sensuality would also change the film.
  • Frank Sinatra was allegedly considered for Guido, with age and physical demands cited against him; the host does not believe the story.

What Piece of Memorabilia Would You Want From This Movie?

  • Hutton's shearling jacket from the last hour of the movie is wearable now.
  • Lake Forest swim team merch, such as varsity jackets, track suits or swim pullovers, is another choice.
  • A crack at Ward's pool, which he is so proud of.

  • Redford is a yes: one of the most bankable actors, at his handsome peak, and a Best Director winner who took down Scorsese; the Sundance Institute was formed in 1981.
  • Timothy Hutton is a probable yes, with Taps also considered, but the Oscar closes the deal.
  • Mary Tyler Moore is a no, followed by a tangent on attractive stars of earlier decades and her Laura Petrie on The Dick Van Dyke Show.
  • The 1981 Oscars are considered, but one host names 1994 as the Apex telecast and 1975's hosts are read; no Apex call is made for 1981.
  • Sutherland could be talked into Apex, but his peak is also placed at the 24-era moment when viewers learned he is Kiefer's father, and at JFK.
  • Judd Hirsch is an emphatic yes.
  • Elizabeth McGovern is a no.
  • The name Buck is declared Apex Mountain by one voice, supported with Buck Henry, Buck Showalter, Magic Johnson's nickname Young Buck, Craig's suggestion of Uncle Buck and Bucky Barnes, while Yankee fans' Bucky Dent is waved off.
  • The name Ward belongs to Ward Cleaver, but Buck and Ward in the same movie is declared Apex Mountain.
  • Intense Chicago movies are becoming Apex but are not there yet, and fucked up family movies are a no.
