| 1 | * SugarWiki/AwesomeMusic: The score composed by Music/DavidByrne, Music/RyuichiSakamoto and Cong Su. Especially Sakamoto's main theme, although Byrne's music plays over the opening credits. Cong Su only wrote ''one'' cue for the entire movie ("Lunch.") |
| 2 | * HilariousInHindsight: In this film Vivian Wu and Joan Chen play characters who are both married to the same emperor. More than thirty years later they appear together in ''Series/RuyisRoyalLoveInThePalace'', where they play characters who were both married to the same emperor. |
| 3 | * JerkassWoobie: Pu-Yi starts as a woobie, becomes a huge jerk (to say it very, VERY politely), then little by little he returns to woobie state. His CharacterDevelopment revolves around him taking responsibility for being made the emperor of the Japanese puppet regime of Manchukuo and accepting his role in causing war crimes. |
| 4 | * OneSceneWonder: Lisa Lu, despite appearing in only one scene, left quite an impression as the dying Empress Dowager Cixi. |
