Film 830: Cemetery Junction
Trivia: The premise/plot of
the film is said, by both Ricky
Gervais and Stephen
Merchant, to be based upon the song "Thunder Road"
by Bruce Springsteen.
The original title was
"The Men at the Pru", an advertising slogan for the Prudential
insurance company. During the writing of the film, the Prudential allowed Ricky Gervais and Stephen Merchant to use their
archives for research. However, after reading the finished script, the company
decided it didn't like how it was being portrayed and refused to allow the
usage of their name. The new title comes from an actual area in the town of
Reading, where the film takes place.
