3. The film was inspired by events in the lives of the Shue family. Elisabeth Shue played a role inspired by her mother, Andrew Shue produced the film and had a small role, younger brother John Shue helped raised the finances, and it was directed by Davis Guggenheim, Elisabeth's husband. Although the film was motivated by the family's history, Elisabeth Shue, the inspiration for the film's title character, actually quit soccer as a teenager: “The movie is really what would have happened if I hadn’t quit. I quit because of what people would think of me. The pressure from the boys. The awkward development of my body. I really, really regret it. I wish I’d been brave enough.” Production notes and photos © 2007 Picturehouse HOLLYWOODJESUS.COM
