Production
The film was primarily shot in and around Margaretville, New York in the Catskill Mountains circa June 1999 (posters for Margaretville's 4th of July "Field Days" can be seen in shop windows).
While the bank exteriors were filmed at Margaretville's NBT bank, the interiors were filmed in another bank closer to New York City since NBT considered interior filming a security risk.
The scenes where Rudy Jr. walks home in the rain were filmed with the assistance of the Margaretville Fire Department which used their trucks and hoses to create the rain.
Many outdoor scenes away from the Village—most notably the fishing trip—were filmed in Phoenicia, New York. The cemetery seen in the film is not the Village's—which cannot be seen from the road—rather it is a smaller cemetery four miles outside the village on Route 30.
