What's left behind the scenes
- Woody Allen's first film shot entirely in Britain from beginning to end.
- Kate Winslet was initially cast as Nola Rice, but she turned down the role, citing a desire to spend more time with her family. And, considering the film was shot in Britain, Woody Allen had to recruit a certain percentage of the cast and crew from England. He obviously met the necessary "British" quota before Winslet was cast, and therefore, after she declined to participate, Woody confidently entrusted the role of Nola to American actress Scarlett Johansson.
- The painting on the wall depicting a girl with a red balloon, past whom Chris walks, was painted by Banksy – a graffiti artist from Bristol.
- Memorable concert recordings are featured several times in the film, including during the opening and closing credits. This is "Unfurl the Flag" performed by Enrico Caruso from Gaetano Donizetti's opera "The Elixir of Love".
- The film features music by Georges Bizet, Gaetano Donizetti, Giuseppe Verdi, Gioachino Rossini, Andrew Lloyd Webber, and Carlos Gomes.
- Woody Allen cast Toby Kebbell in the film without an audition, impressed by his performance in "Dead Man's Shoes".

- In one scene of the film, the characters go to a cinema to watch Walter Salles' "The Motorcycle Diaries" about the young Che Guevara.
