According to a 1996 online interview Vonnegut said Weide "has been a friend for 15 years so I had a very good idea of what he would do and how well he understood the book. So I was right to trust him"; when asked about the degree of artistic influence Vonnegut had had over the film, Vonnegut said "Almost none. Except my friendship with Weide — I would have kicked him in the balls if he did a bad job."
