TRIVIA AND POPULAR DIALOGUES

Trivia

This movie was shot entirely in color. It was decided during editing, however, that the movement between past and present could be made clearer by printing the Roman and Margaret scenes in black-and-white. Director Sir Kenneth Branagh comments on the DVD that the costume and set designers were disappointed by this, because they would have used different colors for those scenes, which would photograph better in black-and-white, had they known this.

Being one of his few horror/thriller movies, Robin Williams didn't want his name to appear in the opening credits, as it might have misled audiences into thinking that this movie was a comedy. He only has three scenes with director Sir Kenneth Branagh, and one with Dame Emma Thompson. This was due to Robin doing two other movies the same year, not from Paramount Pictures, but from TriStar Pictures (a subsidiary of Sony Pictures), which include Terry Gilliam's The Fisher King (1991) and Steven Spielberg's Hook (1991)

The convent is the same building that was used for exteriors of Bruce Wayne's house in Batman (1966).

A lacquer box containing an antique pair of scissors, seen late in the movie, has Japanese characters on it that translate into "These are for you," a recurring line of dialogue in the movie.

When we first meet Mike Church, he's parked on the wrong side of the street. Most people thought this was a nod to director Sir Kenneth Branagh's British heritage. The real reason is because Branagh wanted some Los Angeles skyscrapers visible in the background.

Popular Dialogues

"Cozy Carlisle: Someone is either a smoker or a nonsmoker. There's no in-between. The trick is to find out which one you are, and be that. If you're a nonsmoker, you'll know."

"Cozy Carlisle: You take what you've learned from this life and use it in the next. That's karma. Mike Church: I thought karma was I do something bad in this life and I'm a termite in the next. Cozy Carlisle: Hey, if you ask me, pal, you're already a termite in this life in a shitty suit, OK?"
