Trivia The credits claim the screenplay is based on a novel by a Judith Wexley. Several researchers have said they could find no trace of this novel, and it apparently does not exist. See more »
Goofs The movie is set after the Anglo-Zulu war of 1879 when the British imperial and colonial forces invaded Zululand, a war which spanned for six months. After this war, the English soldier Elio returns to Italy where he now lives. But clothes worn by the characters match the 1920s and 1930s better than they do the 1870s. Among Elio's possessions is a car. According to a movie car database this car is a Lancia Augusta which was in production between 1933 and 1936. Also, the family listens to Italian fascist propaganda about "Il Duce", Benito Mussolini, on a 20th century radio set. The fascist Mussolini was in power from 1922 to 1943. See more »
