* EnsembleDarkhorse: The German sisters with the head balancing act who keep swooning over Sebastian have little plot prominence or dialogue but are pretty popular performers.

* TheyWastedAPerfectlyGoodCharacter: Phyllis is a decently colorful character played by a big name star, but she is OutOfFocus a fair bit and never seems to get any resolution to her small subplot. Her iron jaw act is never even featured.

* SugarWiki/VisualEffectsOfAwesome: Say what you will about this movie, but the [[spoiler: train crash scene]] is still pretty impressive for its time. It may have been all models and green screens, but [[spoiler: having two trains smash into one another in a gruesome and twisted wreck]] in a way that impressed Creator/StevenSpielberg enough to pursue a career in movies says it all.

* HypeBacklash: The film was a box office smash and considered very entertaining, but its reputation took a nose dive after it controversially won the UsefulNotes/AcademyAward for Best Picture. Many people quite understandably felt the year's other contenders -- including ''Film/HighNoon'', ''Film/TheQuietMan'', ''Film/{{Ivanhoe}}'', and ''Film/SinginInTheRain'' (which wasn't even nominated!) -- were better films and didn't deserve the AwardSnub. Many have speculated that it won because ''High Noon'' and ''Ivanhoe'' had blacklisted screenwriters involved, and the Academy wanted to honor Creator/CecilBDeMille for his body of work. Since then it has often appeared on lists such as "worst best picture."
* OvershadowedByControversy: Nowadays, the movie's less known for its plot and more known for somehow managing to beat out ''Film/SinginInTheRain'' (among other films) for a Best Picture award.
