can someone edit the capital letter in With to be lower case, so the link in Drew Barrymore's page and others will work?

Plot & details

The 'Plot' section is extremely short, and sounds more like what you would read on the back of a DVD case than an actual summary of the plot. I am not going to fix it quite yet, if anyone else wants to - feel free - if/when I have more time I might try and take it on myself. Also, 'Details' is being used like a 'Trivia' section. I think it is unnecessary and am going to remove it - feel free to tell me if you disagree. Oh, and to the person above - please sign your name!

The plot section is absurdly complex due to the writing style. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 77.101.144.113 (talk) 00:08, 25 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Details

This is unsourced trivia and so I've placed it here until it can be properly cited.--J.D. (talk) 16:00, 2 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Most of the set including the police station and Beverly's apartment were all abandoned buildings on the campus of Upsala College in East Orange, New Jersey.

Portions of the movie were shot in Tuckahoe, New York and Mount Vernon, New York

The exterior of the wedding scene was shot at a Protestant church, the Clarkstown Reformed Church, in West Nyack, New York. For the filming, the church exterior was dressed up to resemble a Catholic church. The wedding hall sequence was filmed inside the church's annex known as The Fellowship House.

The real life Beverly and Jason Donofrio appear in the movie as guests at Beverly's wedding. They can be seen sitting directly behind Barrymore in the wedding scene.

When the rights were purchased in 1989 by James L. Brooks, Debra Winger and Cher were considered for the lead.

The double for Beverly's son was a local New jersey native named Jordon who was in 4 scenes because of the real actor's sickness.

The actor that plays Jason, Adam Garcia, is about 1 year and 8 months older than Drew Barrymore, who plays his mother.

Riding in Vans with Boys is a punk rock documentary based on the title of the movie featuring blink 182 and Green Day.
