1	* AwardSnub:
2	** The film received ten UsefulNotes/AcademyAward nominations and won three - Best Actress, Story and Costume Design (Black and White). Creator/GregoryPeck wasn't nominated for Best Actor.
3	** On the other side of things, Audrey Hepburn's win for Best Actress denied Creator/DeborahKerr -- who would be nominated ''six'' times in her career without a single win -- the award for her breathtaking performance as Karen in ''Film/FromHereToEternity'', widely acclaimed as her best performance up until that point.
4	* GermansLoveDavidHasselhoff: It was a nice hit in the Anglosphere out the gate, but the Japanese went absolutely ''nuts'' over it. Thousands of girls up and down the country [[TheRedStapler imitated Princess Ann's haircut]] as a fashion statement, and as related in the Trivia tab, as of 2022 the movie has at least ''nine'' different Japanese dubs. That's not counting the manga adaptation, the out-and-out remakes, the ShoutOut's in everything from ''Manga/MagicKaito'' to ''Anime/SailorMoon'' to ''[[Anime/MobileSuitGundamWing Gundam]]''...
5	* HarsherInHindsight: Irving Radovich wants to publish photos of the princess, saying, "She's fair game, Joe! It's always open season on princesses." Over forty years later, Princess Diana was killed in Paris after being chased by paparazzi.
6	%%* {{Moe}}: If you want a ''really'' good definition of this character type, look no further than Creator/AudreyHepburn's role.
7	* SignatureScene: The RomanticRideSharing on a Vespa.
8	%%* SpiritualSuccessor:
9	%%** Is this to ''Film/ItHappenedOneNight''.
10	%%** Among many others, the 2018 Anime ''Anime/TadaNeverFallsInLove'' follows the plot quite closely.
11	* TearJerker: Watching Ann look longingly at Joe at the press conference, knowing that they can never be together after that.
12	* ValuesDissonance:
13	** Giving injections to calm a person who is mildly emotional is now considered overly harsh and even harmful.
14	** Nowadays, a semiconscious, seemingly intoxicated woman found on a park bench would be taken immediately to the hospital.
15	** Ann smoking a cigarette for the first time is obviously supposed to be a rite of passage all adults should have. Instead of just gross.
