1* AwesomeDearBoy: Hugo Becker was very enthusiastic to play Charette, for it was a historical era and character he had very little knowledge of prior to working on the film.
2* DuelingWorks: Came out the same year as Creator/RidleyScott's ''Film/{{Napoleon|2023}}'', another {{biopic}} about a charismatic French military leader that came to prominence during UsefulNotes/TheFrenchRevolution. Both films start during the ReignOfTerror.
3* InMemoriam: The film is dedicated to the dozens of thousands of victims of the Infernal Columns during the Wars in Vendée.
4* NoBudget: The €3.5 million budget didn't allow for filming of battles outside of a few skirmishes, hence why the battles are given {{time skip}}s.
5* WhatCouldHaveBeen: The film was initially conceived as a {{Docudrama}} for the Canal+ TV channel, but its producers decided to up the ante and make it a full-fledged historical film to be released theatrically.
