TRIVIA AND POPULAR DIALOGUES

Trivia

The Singapore Film Commission selected this as their submission to the Oscars in the Best Foreign Language Film category. The film was approved by the Academy and screened for the Foreign Language Film Committee. Several days after the official screening, the Academy disqualified the film saying that although the film featured characters speaking three languages (plus one lead deaf and blind character who could not speak), they had "measured" each one and found that there was too much English spoken for them to consider it a Foreign Language Film.

Received a five-minute standing ovation when it premiered at the Noga Hilton hotel under the Directors' Fortnight at Cannes.

The 37th Selection Directors' Fortnight's Opening Film at the 58th Cannes Film Festival.

This film features a theater scene where two schoolgirls are watching a Japanese film. However, we merely hear the dialog but do not see the visual of the film that's supposed to be on the screen. In fact, it was the film's sound man who rounded up some Japanese friends and improvised it during post-production.
