Trivialidades:

Seventy-five girls were needed for the film, and about 500 showed when auditions were held in London. Faced with such an overwhelming number, the director's assistant separated the girls into more manageable groups of twenty. The director then asked each girl to giggle, and he made his selections based on how well the girls could do so.

Errores:

Continuidad: In the scene where Mr. Llyod spies Ms. Brodie and the girls from his studio window he is seen wearing dark brown pants. He rushes from the room. When he emerges on the street he is wearing light colored pants.

Citas:

Jean Brodie: For those who like that sort of thing, that is the sort of thing they like.

Dreams Of "Il Duce"

Maggie Smith is mesmerizing. She paints the blind monstrosity of Miss Jean Brodie in the most recognizable human tones. Robin William's character in "Dead Poet Society" is as irresponsible but doesn't go near as far as this repressed masterpiece of a creature. Her romantic slant towards "Il Duce" and what he represents is at the core of the simple complexity of the character. Maggie's mannerism, now a precious trade mark, belong to Miss Brodie, totally. Her arms, her chin, the turning of her face. Pamela Franlklin is also superb. What a powerful young actress -- Where is she now? -- and Celia Johnson's performance is the icing on the cake of this feast of a movie.
