- "Like Crazy" won the jury award for feature films at the sundance film festival in 2011, and the heroine Felicity Jones also won the jury special award. In order to get the PG-13 rating, the director of the film, Drake Doremus , made some "corrections" to the film. Most of the deleted lines are some R-level lines.
- Before the film was released to the sundance film festival, Drake Doremus once showed the rough cut version of the film to his former students.
- Anton Yelchin and Felicity Jones appeared in this movie because of the beautiful lines in the script.

- Most of the props in the film, such as Anna's bracelet and the white wedding dress at the time of marriage, are the same as those of the former Mrs. Drake .
