• The scene where Deborah François in a red dress enters the hotel room is a tribute to the Vertigo publishing house.
• Actor Eddie Mitchell began his career as a vocalist in the famous group Les Chaussettes Noires (The Black Socks). One of the group's songs, Dactylo Rock, which Eddie wrote in 1961, is featured in the film.
• The film features the name of the company “ICM”. The filmmakers did not have permission to use the name “IBM”.
• Saint-Frambourg is named as Rose’s hometown, while filming took place in Bassilly, Normandy.
• Rosa uses an Adler Triumph typewriter, a model where the extreme upper letters on the right side of the keyboard are “AZERTY.” This keyboard layout is popular among French-speaking users in Europe. English-speaking users prefer a typewriter with a different layout – there, the upper letters on the right side of the keyboard are “QWERTY.” In Switzerland and Luxembourg, it is “QWERTZ.”
