Jonathan Demme, the film's director, is known for his work in the film industry, including The Silence of the Lambs and Philadelphia. In addition, he made several documentaries about the famous musician Neil Young, and it was important for him that the music in the film was authentic. So Meryl Streep, who played Ricky, really sings and acts herself. For this, the actress studied with several musicians for more than one month. Filming began in New York on October 13, 2014. Mamie Gummer, whose character in the film is Ricky's child, is actually Meryl Streep's daughter. It is interesting that the Oscar-winning actress has already collaborated with Kevin Kline, and more than once, and at the time of the filming of the film "Sophie's Choice" in 1982, where they also played together, Streep was pregnant with Mamie Gummer. Jonathan Demme's film is the third for mother and daughter, after the films "Jealousy" and "Evening". Rick Springfield, who played Ricky's boyfriend in "It's Never Too Late to Love", has both a musical and an acting career in his life. His radio hit "Jessie's Girl" reached number one on the Billboard Hot chart in 1981. And he regularly appeared in the TV series "Main Hospital" and "True Detective". Sebastian Stan, who plays the Winter Soldier in Captain America, played one of Ricky and Pete's three children.
