Final frame?


Could anyone transcribe the text of that final frame shown ("the copyright information", as mentioned in the Trivia section discussing this movie)? Neither my DVD player nor the one I watched the movie on earlier this week have slo-mo features, and my stepfather and I drove ourselves nuts trying to hit pause at the EXACT SECOND it appeared onscreen and finding ourselves too uncoordinated every time. The disclaimers at the beginning of the film, after the T. Azimuth Schwitters live appearance ad, were easier to freeze because they were more than one frame (though not by much), but I swear we spent like 10 minutes trying to see what it says at the end.

Boy, I like this quirk-fest more every time I see it. I rarely laugh as hard at anything in real life as I do when the lady makes her newscast about Rhode Island.

text exactly as it appears (except for alignment, which is centre):

Thanks! Your standard disclaimer, then. With a film this zany, it never hurts to check, I suppose. I guess I imagined it said something like, "certain factual characters and events were combined for dramatic purposes", or "nose army", or some such closing non-sequitur.
