Cecil B. DeMille's prologue fails to mention the great irony of the Battle of New Orleans: by the time it was fought, a treaty to end the War of 1812 had already been signed in London. However, word of the signing did not reach New Orleans until weeks later.
In his 1995 autobiography "In the Arena", Charlton Heston stated that he regretted being made to look much older than the real Andrew Jackson who was forty-six years old during the War of 1812.
There was a "Dominic Yu" in Lafitte's band of pirates, but modern research suggests "Yu" was actually an alias for Alexandre Lafitte, Jean's older brother, from whom he learned the buccaneer's trade.
Anthony Quinn played the role of Beluche in The Buccaneer (1938). In this remake, he was the film's director. In fact, this was his only effort as a director. He got it mainly because he was Cecil B. DeMille's son-in-law.
Facts were changed to protect 1950s sensitivities. The real Jean Lafitte did have an affair with a Claybourne lady, but it was the Governor's wife, not his daughter.
"Jean Lafitte: [Told by the British that a battle is coming and he *better* be on the winning side] Oh, the side I choose will be the winning side!"
"Jean Lafitte: [Frowning] Annette, you are the governor's daughter. Think what would happen if you were found here, in the arms of a pirate! Annette Claiborne: [Breathless] Don't ask me to think, Jean. Kiss me instead!"
