Director Otto Preminger offered the role of a Southern senator to Martin Luther King Jr., believing that the casting could have a positive impact (despite the fact that there were no black senators at the time). King declined after serious consideration, as he felt playing the role could cause hostility and hurt the civil rights movement.
Final film of Charles Laughton. He died of cancer six months after the movie was released.
"Advise & Consent" was the first mainstream film to feature a scene set inside a gay bar.
Peter Lawford was cast because Otto Preminger valued his access to the Kennedy family. Lawford was John F. Kennedy's brother in law, and JFK was also a massive movie buff who loved having a film crew around the White House.
Film debut of Betty White.
"Johnny Leffingwell: The phone - Senator Munson. Robert Leffingwell: Tell him I've gone out. Johnny Leffingwell: Why? Robert Leffingwell: Because, Johnny, he'll want to do some things that might obligate me. Johnny Leffingwell: I mean why do you want me to lie? If you're in, you're in; if you're out, you're out. Robert Leffingwell: Son, this is a Washington, D.C. kind of lie. It's when the other person knows you're lying, and also knows you *know* he knows. You follow?"
"Robert Leffingwell: I'm an egghead. I'm not only an egghead, I'm a premeditated egghead. I set out to become an egghead and at this moment I'm in full flower of eggheadedness, and I hope to spread the spores of egghead everywhere I go."
