Trivia
When Everett asks the hobos on the train if any of them are "smithys", look closely and you'll see that they're sitting on big bags of Pappy O'Daniel flour. Pappy is a major character later in the film. See more...

Continuity: In the scene where Everett finds his wife in the Woolworth's, he pulls her off to the side to have a private conversation. You can see the twine that connects her and all her children start to stretch out as she walks away. In the next shot, as she is walking over to Everett, the string is gone.
Factual error: In the scene where Everett and company enter the radio station, Everett asks 'Who is the honcho here?' 'Honcho' is derived from a Japanese word for 'group leader' and did not enter American slang until after World War II, by way of Allied occupation forces in Japan.
