Isabelle Huppert really played the piano in the film. She had studied piano for 12 years. As preparation for her role as a piano teacher, she resumed practicing a year before the film was started.
Received three of the most important awards at the 2001 Cannes Film Festival ( Grand Prize, Best Actress, Best Actor ). Since this edition of the festival, there is law which forbids for the jury to give so many important prizes to the same movie.
The character of the mother is based on author Elfriede Jelinek's real-life mother.
First movie wherein Michael Haneke wrote a screenplay based on a book as opposed to using his own material.
Isabelle Huppert's performance in this film is considered to be one of the greatest of the previous decade and inspired actresses like Jessica Chastain or Nicole Kidman.
"Erika Kohut: After all, love is built on banal things."
