Trivia
The beige dress with paisley bodice worn by an extra on the Marseilles wharf early in the film is the same costume Sabina Franklyn (Jane Bennet) wears at Longbourn in Pride and Prejudice, Rachel Fielding (Mrs. Benson) wears in Princess Caraboo, Julie Cox (Annabella Milbanke) wears to read Byron's poetry book in Byron, and Freema Agyeman (Tattycoram) wears on the Marseilles wharf in Little Dorrit. The same costume is also worn by a guest at Fanny's wedding in Miss Austen Regrets. See more »Goofs
Continuity: At Albert's birthday party, Mercedes clearly sits to the left of Edmond. However, in the close-ups, Edmond is seen looking to the right when looking at her. See more »Quotes
