| 1 | * ActingForTwo: Creator/MorfyddClark plays both David's mother Clara and his would-be wife Dora, giving his attraction to Dora some serious Oedipal undertones. |
| 2 | * CreatorsOddball: For Creator/ArmandoIannucci. Compared to ''Series/{{Veep}}'' and ''Series/TheThickOfIt'', both of which were cynical, ruthless, and dark comedies, this film is completely straightforward, has more heart and warmth than his other works, and is even optimistic overall. |
| 3 | * LateExportForYou: Was released in the United States in August 28, 2020, over seven months after it's UK release on January 24. |
| 4 | * ReleaseDateChange: It was originally supposed to come out in the United States on May 8, 2020, but was pushed back due to the UsefulNotes/COVID19Pandemic. It wound up being released on August 28. |
| 5 | * ScrewedByTheNetwork: The initial U.S. date of May 8, 2020 positioned the film as a counterprogramming play one week after parent company Creator/{{Disney}}'s own ''Film/{{Black Widow|2021}}'' (''Film/TheBestExoticMarigoldHotel'', also starring Creator/DevPatel, had flourished alongside [[Film/TheAvengers2012 another Marvel tentpole]]). However, the rescheduled date saw Disney instead dumping the film as one of the first mid-pandemic theatrical releases -- on the same day, in fact, as another Disney release, ''Film/TheNewMutants''. This led to a terrible sub-$2 million box office performance. (The fact that the film had already been released in numerous countries and was thus liable to piracy is likely the reason it wasn't held further.) |
