Trivia for
Switch (1991) More at IMDbPro »

• A seduction scene between Ellen Barkin and Lorraine Bracco was excised after poor reactions in test screenings.
  
  
• JoBeth Williams was up for a different part in this film but when she read the script, she said the only part she would consider playing was Margo and she got that part instead.
  
  
• This film was indirectly referenced in numerous episodes of "Mystery Science Theater 3000" (1988). In the original television spots for the film, Jimmy Smits name was announced in an unusual way: "Ellen Barkin. Switch. Jimmy Smits. Starts Friday." The writers of MST3K found it amusing that Smits' name was announced after the title and not announced as "also starring Jimmy Smits" or "with Jimmy Smits", only as "Jimmy Smits". In various episodes, a character would say "Jimmy Smits" whenever the word "switch" was uttered or sometimes for seemingly no reason at all.
