- Awesome Music: The soundtrack, by Peter Gregson, elicits peaceful and calming tones. This was Gregson's first ever film soundtrack.
- Ensemble Dark Horse: Stanley Tucci's Philippe Duc d'Orleans.
- Genius Bonus: King Louis XIV was known as the "Sun King". When Sabine refers to "warmth from the sun", she's actually referring to the king himself.
- Heartwarming in Hindsight: Alan Rickman sadly passed away in 2016. The film’s final shot of his character looking out as the others dance around him is a fitting tribute to this great man.
- Iron Woobie: Sabine De Barra.
- Mentor Ship: After their conversation together in the garden, many people ship King Louis XIV and Sabine. It helped that Alan Rickman and Kate Winslet have known each other for more than 20 years, have a natural chemistry together, and played a couple in their previous film together.
- Show, Don't Tell: The film's strength. A weaker film would have just blatantly told us about the feminist qualities of Sabine explicitly, whilst A Little Chaos instead shows her being a capable, strong character.
