Napoleon Dynamite

I found some interesting random info about the movie Napoleon Dyanmite..

Every dish shown during the opening credits is eaten by a character later in the movie. The dishes presented in the opening credits were the work of the three people who present them.

The wedding scene at the end was half the cost of the entire movie!

Jon Hedder was paid $1,000 to play the role of Napoleon. The movie grossed over $40,000,000 in the United States.

The movie was edited in producer Jeremy Coon's apartment using a $6,000 Macintosh with Final Cut Pro.

The movie was shot in 22 days.
