Line 19:
* [[All Musicals Are Adaptations]]
* [[All Take and No Give]]: Guido.
* [[Beard of Sorrow]]: In the movie.▼
* [[Casanova]]: Deconstructed (although Guido is definitely more in the [[Looking for Love In All the Wrong Places]] category) and lampshaded with Guido's film, a filmed opera version about the [[Trope Namer]] starring Guido himself that resembles Gudio's own life a little too closely.
* [[Coming of Age Story]]: As Guido turns forty, he looks back on his life and realizes it's finally time to grow up.
Line 24 ⟶ 25:
** [[Bittersweet Ending]]: {{spoiler|In the 2003 revival, Luisa embraces Guido just as the curtain falls.}}
** {{spoiler|In the film version, Luisa sneaks onto the set and hides in the shadows as Guido makes his newest film.}}
▲* [[Beard of Sorrow]]: In the movie.
* [[Driven to Suicide]]: {{spoiler|Guido nearly ends his life after his midlife crisis overwhelms him, but he is stopped by his nine-year-old self. This is absent in the film version.}}
** {{spoiler|In the film version, it is Carla who nearly ends her life after Guido rejects her.}}
Line 41:
* [[Patter Song]]: "Contini Submits", Stephanie Necrophorus' section of "Follies Bergeres".
* [[Prima Donna Director]]: Guido.
* [["The Reason You Suck" Speech]]: Luisa delivers one very powerful one imbetween lines of her song "Take it All" {{spoiler|Thank you...for reminding me I'm not special. You don't even see what you do. Even the moments I think are ours, it's just you working to get what you want... You're just an appetite, and if you stop being greedy you die. You take everything and I'm empty. You know, I'm glad I came. I can see now it's hopeless.}}▼
* [[Screen to Stage Adaptation]]: And back again with Rob Marshall's film.
* [[Show Within a Show]]: Guido's film of ''Casanova''.
* [[Solo Duet]]: Lampshaded by Guido during his [["I Am" Song]] as he sings how much he'd "like another me to travel along with myself/I would like to be able to sing a duet with myself."
▲* [["The Reason You Suck" Speech]]: Luisa delivers one very powerful one imbetween lines of her song "Take it All" {{spoiler|Thank you...for reminding me I'm not special. You don't even see what you do. Even the moments I think are ours, it's just you working to get what you want... You're just an appetite, and if you stop being greedy you die. You take everything and I'm empty. You know, I'm glad I came. I can see now it's hopeless.}}
* [[Troubled Production]]: In-universe. The production of Guido's future masterpiece ''Italia'' is, to put it very mildly, a living hell: no script, no cast, outrageous sets and costumes, and one crazy director.
