* AllStarCast: The cast list reads rather like a "Who's Who of British Acting", with names like Creator/JudiDench, Creator/DerekJacobi, Creator/BrianBlessed, Creator/KennethBranagh, Creator/EmmaThompson, Creator/IanHolm, Creator/ChristianBale, Creator/RobbieColtrane and Creator/RichardBriers. It's especially worth noting that this was ''not'' an AllStarCast at the time. Ian Holm, Derek Jacobi, and Brian Blessed were somewhat fairly well-known character actors on-screen, and Christian Bale was a rising child actor coming off of ''Film/EmpireOfTheSun'', but everyone's gotten a lot more famous since, especially star-director Kenneth Branagh and his wife Emma Thompson.
* CreatorCouple: Branagh cast wife (at the time) Creator/EmmaThompson as Catherine.
* TheDanza: Possibly the biggest-ever example of this trope; the part of Michael Williams is played by veteran film and stage actor Michael Williams.
* DirectedByCastmember
* EnforcedMethodActing: Creator/KennethBranagh said in an interview that carrying the "corpse" of Creator/ChristianBale caused him terrible back pain. He carried his dead weight for the whole of a long tracking shot. The look on his face was genuine pain and not acting.
* WhatCouldHaveBeen: Creator/IanMcKellen turned down the role of the King of France.
