What's left behind the scenes
- Dakota Johnson dedicated two years to ballet lessons in preparation for her role.
- The film is set in Berlin in 1977 – the year Dario Argento's "Suspiria" was released.
- A significant portion of the filming took place in Germany, however, the main location was the Grand Hotel, which had been closed since 1968 and is located on a mountaintop in Varese (Italy). The building was completely rebuilt to resemble the interior of a dance academy.
- Jessica Harper starred in the film, playing the main character Susie Bannion, which she also played in Dario Argento’s film of the same name.
- Before the film’s premiere and for some time afterwards, the authors and Tilda Swinton herself maintained that Lutz Ebersdorf, the actor who played Dr. Klemperer, was a real person. However, even the name itself contains a clue confirming a connection with Swinton’s surname: “Eber” means “boar” or “swine” in German, and “dorf” means “town.” This forms the actress’s surname – Swine-town, or Swinton.
- For the scene with the main dance number, Volk, each costume was hand-knitted from red rope. The costume designers specifically trained in bondage techniques, drawing inspiration from the work of Japanese artist and provocative photographer Nobuyoshi Araki, known for his erotic work.
- While working on the film’s visual style, director Luca Guadagnino drew inspiration from the films of German director Rainer Werner Fassbinder. Additionally, Ingrid Caven, Fassbinder’s muse and former wife, and a star in more than 15 of his films, played a role in “Suspiria.”
- In 2008, the lead role was offered to Natalie Portman.

However, even the name itself contains a clue confirming a connection to the Swinton surname: “Eber” means 'boar' or 'swine' in German, and “dorf” means 'town'. This combines to form the actress’s surname – Swine-town, or Swinton.
