TRIVIA AND POPULAR DIALOGUES

Trivia

Opera singer Kiri Te Kanawa dubbed the singing voice of lead actress Glenn Close.

The director's name, István Szabó, translates as Stephen Tailor, and one running gag in the film is that several people are called this in different languages: Stefan Schneider, Steve Taylor, Stefano Sarto (three of the singers), and Etienne Tailleur (the stage manager).

The film is partially based on director István Szabó's own experiences of directing Wagner's "Tannhauser" in Paris.

Glenn Close for this film in 1991 was the winner of the Golden Ciak award for Best Actress given by the Venice Film Festival.

Director István Szabó for this film in 1992 was the winner of the European Silver Ribbon award given by the Italian National Syndicate of Film Journalists.
