* GettingCrapPastTheRadar: The book contains a few subtle jabs towards both the communist regime of post-war Poland in general, and the Polish Armed Forces in particular (and especially their disregard for recruits' lives). While it worked in book format, it was too much for a film adaptation, with censorship removing it already at the stage of the script's draft.

* {{Omniglot}}: More than expected, since Adolf has a pre-war [=PhD=] in History of Art. He speaks fluent French, German, Italian and also has basic understanding of English and Russian. And that goes without mentioning classical education, which means Latin and ancient Greek, indispensable in his field. This is ''sharply'' contrasted in the movie - Franek only knows a handful of foreign words and is always trying to explain things in Polish and with hefty helping of [[NonverbalMiscommunication hand gestures]].

* GettingCrapPastTheRadar: ZigZagged. As revealed many years after the premiere, the director had to do a lot of back-and-forth with political censorship. The censors were perfectly aware of various lines having "anti-system" undertones, but let many of them slide, since they could be just as readily read as ''pro-''system. Most infamous is the exchange between Kiedros and Dolas, that got a free pass.
-->'''Dolas''': Our place is in the Polish Army! We must fight for Poland!
-->'''Kiedros''': [As he drives away with other Legionnaires] And ''which'' Poland you want to fight for?
-->'''Dolas''': [Clearly confused, way over his head] Which Poland? But... there is only one Poland.

* SurprisinglyGoodForeignLanguage: There is not a single non-Polish actor in the movie. Yet there are dialogues in ''nine'' foreign languages and they are all perfectly performed. The only exception might be the Austrian farmer, who speaks fluent German, but doesn't have a highly distinctive Tyrolian accent, but that's just nit-picking.
