Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaWhen Kristina and Michelle Kennedy were in college, they found out that Diane Keaton was doing a book signing in Southampton, New York. They showed up and when Keaton was doing signings, they placed the photo for Keaton to sign. Keaton remarked on the photo that she'd been thinking about the twins the other day. When she went to sign, she looked at the sisters, back to the photo and realized it was them. Keaton subsequently got up and hugged them both. The sisters later went onto become teachers.
- GoofsIn the beginning of the film, the narrator states that J.C. has a corner office. When the office appears a few minutes later, it's in the middle, with a window.

Best "Chick-Flick" for men to enjoy
I don't like the term "chick flick" but have come to realize that they do exist. This has to be the best movie like this for men. While it speaks to where women were in the corporate workforce in 1987 versus today, it also displays well the fact that it is the baby that causes Keaton's character to grow up, develop and become a more whole person than just the business tiger she was. The addition of Sam Sheppard as the veterinarian love-interest for Keaton is very well done. Sheppard appeals to men as a masculine, intelligent person willing to call his own shots when and where he wants. His ability to become valuable to Keaton who would have before seen him as valueless is priceless. This is a good "snowy Sunday evening" movie to go well with a good, hearty stew and a good friend.
