Several Japanese actors when approached immediately turned down any suggestion about appearing in the film. The Nanking massacre still touches a raw nerve in Japan today and for some Japanese actors the thought of appearing in a film about it was beyond comprehension.
One of the chief headaches for the production involved the scene where a Japanese soldier insists on searching the girls' dormitory in the college and orders the girls to remove their nightgowns. A huge majority of Chinese actresses refused to appear nude because it would have brought shame to their families.
Shanghai doubled up for Nanking in 1937. Although Shanghai is an ultra-modern city, it also has many pockets of underdeveloped real estate that have barely changed from the war years.
Fortuitously, a lot of 30s style housing was earmarked for demolition by the Shanghai authorities to make way for new skyscrapers. The production was able to use these leveled areas to represent the aftermath of bombing raids.
The farewell scene between Rabe and Dora at the docks involved 750 extras.
"Prince Asaka Yasuhiko: Congratulations, Major. You'll make an excellent commander one day. But I ask myself, why is it that I give orders not to take prisoners, and you arrive with thousands? Major Ose: Please forgive me. Japanese Officer: Your Highness. Prince Asaka Yasuhiko: I didn't ask you to speak! [Japanese officer steps back and bows] Prince Asaka Yasuhiko: So, Major. What do you propose? Major Ose: Your Highness. It would be extremely difficult to execute that many prisoners. Prince Asaka Yasuhiko: Is that so? Major Ose: Furthermore, I believe such executions could be considered to be illegal. Prince Asaka Yasuhiko: Illegal? I am entrusting you personally with resolving this matter once and for all. I want no prisoner alive by tomorrow morning. We will also shell the city center. Nanking must experience the superiority of our troops."
"Colonel Nakajima Kesago: He disobeyed the rules by not staying in the car. John Rabe: He didn't stay in the car? His head was cut off! Colonel Nakajima Kesago: It was an honorable death. A contest between two officers. Very popular in Japan. John Rabe: What contest? Colonel Nakajima Kesago: Who decapitates the most enemies."
