What's left behind the scenes
- Danny Boyle was offered the position of director for the film, but he declined as the script did not interest him.
- The film's title, using British slang (Full Monty), means 'completely' or 'fully'. This confused American studio executives who were unaware of this, as there was no character named Monty in the film.
- The working title of the film was 'Eggs, Beans and Chippendales'. Chippendales is a British term for a group of partially nude men who perform dances for female audiences in nightclubs.
- The six actors who played the main roles in the film actually performed a full striptease in front of 400 people. Director Peter Cattaneo described this as a 'no-doubles' deal between him and the actors.
- The scene with the character nicknamed 'Horse' in the phone booth was filmed three times. The first time, an elderly woman standing outside overheard the conversation. The second time, a group of partying girls were eavesdropping. After both versions were rejected, the scene was reshot, this time without any bystanders.
- During the filming of the final scene, the choreographer lay directly in front of the set, out of camera view, shouting instructions to the actors.
- The initial version of the film turned out to be too short, and three months after filming wrapped, a number of additional scenes were shot. This was done without the participation of Robert Carlyle, who was already engaged in another project by that time.
- Many American cinemas released special booklets for viewers prior to the film's screening, providing a translation of the British slang left in the American version of the film, in order to make the dialogue more understandable for the audience.
- In November 1998, Prince Charles restaged a scene taking place in a job center for national television, with the participation of young members of the British charity Prince's Trust.
- The success of the film led to the creation of a Broadway musical with the same title, with the characters and setting Americanized. The musical premiered in San Diego and debuted on Broadway on October 26, 2000, subsequently winning several prestigious awards.
- To date, 'The Full Monty', with box office receipts of £52,232,058 (11,096,718 tickets sold), remains the highest-grossing British film in the national cinema release.
