Joyeux Noel/Trivia

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


  • Actor Allusion: The French lieutenant compliments his German counterpart on his excellent French compared to his poor German. The German lieutenant responds "but your wife is not German." Guillaume Canet, the actor who played the French lieutenant, was married to the German actress (and a co-star in the film) Diane Kruger at this time.
  • Fake Nationality: Danish singer Anna Sørensen was portrayed by German actress Diane Kruger.
    • Who was married at this time to French actor Guillaume Canet, who played the French lieutenant in the film. This provides occasion for an Actor Allusion when the German lieutenant remarks "but your wife is not German" when his French counterpart compliments him on his excellent French.
    • Interestingly, while Kruger speaks fluent French, Canet does not speak German, like the French lieutenant he plays in the movie.
  • Hey, It's That Guy!: Bridget von Hammersmark and Fredrick Zoller sharing the screen once more.
  • Non-Singing Voice: Nikolaus and Anna's performances are dubbed over by two opera singers.
