Quiz
Shots from original 16mm films of the real Andre appear during the credits.

Blooper
Andre the seal was played by a sea lion but it was acting, and playing the part of a seal for the movie - it's a Hollywood thing.

Citazioni
[last lines]
Adult Toni Whitney: [voice over narration] Many years ago, a seal named Andre made his first historic swim home and his life became legend. Every winter he lived the life of a gentlemen at the country aquarium. Every Spring my Dad set him free, and every time Andre made the two hundred and fifty mile journey home to spend the Summer with us, his family. By the time Andre was twenty four years old, he could hardly see. But that didn't stop him from completing his final trip. In all the journeys since my youth, and on all the journeys I have ahead of me, I know I'll never find a better friend than Andre.

Curiosità sui crediti
Home movies of the real Andre are shown while the credits are rolling. They are intercut with key scenes from the film.

Versioni alternative
The original VHS and laserdisc release from 1995 removes the scene in which Paula and Mark are smoking in the shed around Andre, only to be caught red handed by Harry. This scene is intact on the 2002 DVD release.

The Good & Bad Of 'Andre'

GOOD - What gave this movie appeal and made it a bit different is that a seal is the star. The likable seal, "Andre," (in real life, Tory, the sea lion) has cute face with big brown eyes and likes to stick his tongue out and give everyone "the raspberry." The latter joke is way overdone, but it's okay. The most likable human is the father, played by Keith Carradine. The kids are somewhat spoiled but the little one, the star (Tina Majorino) isn't bad.

THE BAD - Too much typical Hollywood families in which (1) there is a stupid teen romance with a rebellious, pouting female teen; (2) the nasty foe who makes trouble for no apparent reason; (3) the nice-guy husband who gets unfairly blamed or is proved wrong in family affairs (the Liberal mother always winning out).

OVERALL - A little more of the seal and less of the teen girls and other annoying people would have made this a lot better. As it is, one viewing was enough.
