Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaDonald Fagen and Walter Becker, of the popular 70's band "Steely Dan", addressed a humorous letter to Owen Wilson's brother, Luke, on their blog with claims that the idea of "You, Me and Dupree" was stolen from their song, "Cousin Dupree". (Lyrics to "Cousin Dupree" can also be found on their website.) Only the name Dupree, and the possibility that Cousin Dupree and that Wilson's character Dupree both may have slept on a couch seem to be the only common links in their claims. Owen Wilson replied to this fact saying "I have never heard the song 'Cousin Dupree' and I don't even know who this gentleman, Mr. Steely Dan, is. I hope this helps to clear things up and I can get back to concentrating on my new movie, "HEY 19" (which is the title of a Steely Dan song).
- GoofsWhen Neil and Dupree are watching the game at Carl's house, Carl gets home, opens a bottle of scotch and pours himself a glass. When he approaches Dupree he is holding the opened bottle, then the cap is on, then it changes to the glass of scotch that was on the counter, then back to the capped bottle.
- Quotes
Carl Peterson: What's with this 'Roman Holiday' obssesion? Your favorite movie is 'Fletch'.
Dupree: It's in my top five, but it's not my favorite.
- Crazy credits(Spoiler) At the end of the credits, Lance Armstrong is shown reading Dupree's book and wondering aloud how to pronounce his "ness" name.

Featured review
'You Me and Dupree', the new comedy starring the Texas charmer Owen Wilson, represents two of the breeziest hours in film this year.
Quirky and funny 'You Me and Dupree' might be a film likely to catch you by surprise. It involves two newlyweds (Dillon and Hudson) and their oafish house guest Dupree (Wilson), who is turning their new world upside down.
I can't tell you what makes 'Dupree' tick so well, but something does. As far as plotting nothing seemed to be "filler" to me. Everything seems to drive the plot forward. Though it might just be "going through the paces" the film makes those paces as quick and lively as possible.
Performance wise, Wilson brings the right amount of charm needed for us to accept Dupree. Dillon and Hudson are solid in thankless roles. And Douglas creates a good supporting character of Hudson's father and Dillon's boss. I'd also like to point out the effortless comedic flow of 'The 40 Year Old Virgin' 's Seth Rogen also seen here.
In closing, 'Dupree' represents some very breezy summer fun in the air conditioned comfort of a theater.
