== Release and sequel ==
Originally exhibited at the Boston Film Festival in 1991, the film contained an alternate ending. It was never given to the MPAA for examination, and thus remains unrated.
It was followed by a semi-sequel called The Boy Who Cried Bitch: The Adolescent Years(2007), without the participation of any of the crew members of the original film, with the exception of scriptwriter Catherine May Levin.[1]
