In the scene were Howard goes to see Beverly and her manager, "Ginger" is with his 2 buddies and they're talking about not getting the girls their money, the first guy with the long hair is from "Ferris Bueller's Day Off", he was the guy that poses as a valet parker and takes the car for a ride. The other guy with dark brown hair is actually now a bigger, bald attorney on NBCs "Medium". The cop that was trying to get the other officers to go after Howard the whole movie, with the blonde hair, is Paul Guilfoyle, now in "CSI" as captain James Brass, the bald chief cop that always works with the unit.Thanks to Ian

Although the film ran like water off a duck's back at the box office it didn't diminish the career of Tim Robbins (Phil) who went on to become a major Hollywood heavyweight in acting and directing.Thanks to Adam

Thomas Dolby got a cameo playing the bartender after working with the actresses playing the band in the film, Cherry Bomb, teaching them how to act like a proper band. The bulk of the soundtrack score ended up being done by John Barry, whilst Thomas only contributed the songs.Rewind Archive

There's often fake stuff floating round, y'know? -Like the 'ghost boy' that can allegedly be seen in "Three Men And A Baby".
