Trivia:
As the part of Holly hadn't been cast, Whoopi Goldberg suggested her close personal friend, Drew Barrymore. The two have been friends since Barrymore visited the set of The Color Purple (1985) in 1985. moreGoofs:
Continuity: When the doctor is talking to Jane after Robin is rushed to the hospital, she says that Robin is "going to the eighth floor". But exterior shots of the same hospital throughout the film show that it is only about four stories high. moreQuotes:
Massarelli, Prosecuting Attorney: Are you a lesbian too, Ms. Nickerson?Robin: No sir but at times I understand the inclination.

Boys on the Side is an awesome movie with a great cast! The whole thing is funny, and warmhearted while dealing tenderly with some rough issues. Drew Barrymore will steal your heart and you'll feel highly sympathetic for the other characters. The three women bond over a road trip, all of them with a secret to be revealed! This is a wonderful, fun and yet serious movie. Seems long but it's worth it. 10/10
