  • Alternative Character Interpretation: Kenny. Whether he's just trying to be a friend to a person he's worried about and admires, trying to figure out his sexuality and attempting to use George as someone to experiment with, is aware of an attraction to George and is hoping George will reciprocate his advances, or any combination of the above is left up to the viewers.
  • Award Snub: Not getting a Best Picture nomination while The Blind Side did. However, it did get a Best Actor nomination for Colin Firth.
  • Awesome Music: By Abel Korzeniowski
  • Faux Symbolism: The fantasies of George drowning.
  • Harsher in Hindsight: George's grief over his longtime partner's death is especially heartbreaking to watch after the death of Richard Buckley, director Tom Ford's partner of 35 years, in September 2021.
