Did You Know?
| Trivia | Federico Fellini claimed that he cast Donald Sutherland because the actor had "the eyes of a masturbator". See more » |
| Goofs | Casanova says "I went to Holland, to Belgium, to Spain. In Oslo, I became seriously ill." But Norway's capital was called Christiania at the time; it did not adopt the name "Oslo" until 1925. And Belgium did not exist until 1830; that region would have been called the "Austrian Netherlands" or by the individual provinces of Brabant, Hainaut and Flanders. See more » |

| Quotes |
Giacomo Casanova:
A man who never speaks ill of women does not love them. For to understand them and to love them one must suffer at their hands. Then and only then can you find happiness at the lips of your beloved. See more » |
