  • Funny Moments:
    • When in Schönbrunn, Napoleon sees a unflattering portrait of Marie Louise and says he pities the guy who will marry her. That guy historically wound up being... himself, in 1810 (five years after the film's end, and in the year following his divorce from Joséphine de Beauharnais).
    • The antics of the heavyset Grognard Alboise de Pontoise (Michel Simon).
  • One-Scene Wonder: Jean Marais as Lazare Carnot. He has only one scene, and that scene is often considered one of the best interactions Napoleon has in the whole film.
