What's left behind the scenes

  • Fleeing the Inquisition at the beginning of the film, Casanova jumps through a window into a building of the Venetian University. Such a university never existed. In reality, the actor jumped through a window into the Teatro Olimpico – a theater in Vicenza designed by architect Andrea Palladio (1508-1580) at the end of the Renaissance. Completed by the master's student, the theater opened on March 3, 1585, and served as a model for theaters around the world.
  • Unlike many other characters in the film, Giacomo Casanova (1725-1798) is a historical figure. Francesca Bruni, for example, is a fictional character. She first appeared on screen in Norman Z. McLeod's "Casanova's Big Night" (1954), played by Joan Fontaine (1917-2013).
  • Some elements of the script were borrowed from William Shakespeare's (1564-1616) "The Merchant of Venice" (1596). For example, Francesca Bruni disguises herself as a man to attend a court session. Jeremy Irons and Charlie Cox, who starred in Michael Radford's "The Merchant of Venice" (2004), played roles in "Casanova".
  • Filming of the film began on July 9, 2004, in Italy.
