Trivia, insights & behind the scenes

Trivia

Shot in 18 days on a $500,000 budget, this was Francis Stokes' feature debut after working in reality TV.

Cultural

Released the same year as 'Napoleon Dynamite' and buried by it — the films share DNA but Harold lacks the ironic distance that made Napoleon quotable.
