Trivia

Over the closing credits, Christopher Guest gives an interview, in character as Corky, where he says that one of his favorite items for sale in his shop is "My Dinner With Andre" action figures. During development of the film, Guest (who also directed) was trying to find a role for Wallace Shawn, who plays himself in "Andre". No role could be found for Shawn, but Shawn kept wheedling, saying he wanted to be part of the film in some way. Eventually, Guest caved in by giving Shawn the action figures and the accompanying miniature dining room set. Shawn keeps the entire set on display in his home. See more
