Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. What treat did we see Dani eating throughout the movie?

Answer: Gum

Dani was constantly popping a piece of gum in her mouth. She even offered some to her friend Court and her sister Maureen.

2. How did Court die?

Answer: His tractor ran over him.

Court was taking his hat off of a tree where he had previously put it, and soon enough, he fell off of the tractor he was riding, and it ran over him. :'( His mother tried to save him, but when Dani saw that she was failing, she went to go tell someone.

She told her father and he ran to the scene, but Court was nearly dead already. Court's death led to a lot of problems at home, the biggest of which was a rivalry between Dani and Maureen.

3. Who was the first member of the Trant family to see Court when he moved into the old Foster home?

Answer: Dani

Dani was swimming in the lake when Court jumped in too. He told her to get out because since he moved to the Foster house, the lake became his property. Dani, being the stubborn teen she was, got out very reluctantly, which made them not like each other very much. Neither one was thrilled to learn that their parents were best friends.

4. Billy Sanders hated Maureen Trant.

Answer: False

Billy Sanders took Maureen out on a date, and he kept kissing her. Maureen felt that he was too forward and she needed him to be more serious. She wanted to talk and dance, so she decided not to see him again. Soon, she met Court, and she definitely felt like seeing him again.

5. Did Dani ever tell Court that she loved him?

Answer: Yes

Dani told him while he was fixing stuff in his yard. Since he had already met Maureen and he had feelings for both of them, his only answer was, "Don't! Don't love me now! When things are so mixed up!". Dani ran away, but they talked again...

6. By the end of the movie, how many kids did the Trant family have, and what were their genders?

Answer: Four girls

Matthew Trant always wanted a boy, but he turned out to have four girls, Maureen, Dani, Missy, and their new baby girl. He was that typical, over-protective father.

7. Dani liked Court before Maureen did.

Answer: True

Dani met Court many times before Maureen did, because she and Court went swimming together. They even kissed before Maureen met him. Too bad Maureen was more his age.

8. Which actor/actress started their career with "The Man in the Moon"?

Answer: Reese Witherspoon

In the credits, it said introducing Reese Witherspoon, who played Dani, and that means that this fabulous movie started out her long, successful career. She was about 15 when the movie was filming/came out, so that opened up a lot of jobs for her.

9. What did Court and Dani go into town together to get?

Answer: Salt

While making ice cream, Dani ran out of salt. She thought her father was running into town to get some, so she said, "I'll go with you," but then the father volunteered Court to go. That meant that Dani had to be in a car with Court for a whole ten minutes.

10. Where did Dani and Court like to hang out?

Answer: At the lake

Dani and Court first met in the lake, where they didn't get a good start. When they started to become friends, the lake became their regular hangout.
