What's left behind the scenes

Unlike many other characters in the film, Giacomo Casanova (1725-1798) is a historical figure. Francesca Bruni, for example, is a fictional character. She first appeared on screen in Norman Z. McLeod’s “Casanova’s Big Night” (1954), played by Joan Fontaine (1917-2013).
Some elements of the script were borrowed from William Shakespeare's (1564-1616) "The Merchant of Venice" (1596). For example, Francesca Bruni disguises herself as a man to attend a court session. Jeremy Irons and Charlie Cox, who starred in Michael Radford's "The Merchant of Venice" (2004), played in the film "Casanova".
Fleeing the Inquisition at the beginning of the film, Casanova jumps through a window into a building of the Venetian University. Such a university never existed. In reality, the actor jumped through a window into the Teatro Olimpico – a theater in Vicenza designed by architect Andrea Palladio (1508-1580) at the end of the Renaissance. Completed by the master's student, the theater opened on March 3, 1585, and served as a model for theaters around the world.
