When Robert Harling last spoke to his sister, Susan Harling-Robinson, he was telling her how hard it was to be a writer in New York City and have people consider his work. Susan commented on how she wished she could help him somehow, but she didn't know what she could do. When she died after surgery, Harling wrote the play, on which this movie is based, in her honor (with Shelby based on Susan), thereby making him an established and respected writer.
