What's left behind the scenes

  • The opening scenes of the film are supplemented by an almost inaudible low-frequency sound, similar to the rumble of an earthquake. This noise causes anxiety, mild nausea, and dizziness in many people. It is believed that the sound design of 'Irreversible' is the main reason why viewers left the screening within the first thirty minutes of the film. This is exactly the reaction that director Gaspar Noé was counting on.
  • The music for the film was composed by Thomas Bangalter, a member of the electronic duo Daft Punk. In addition to the original music, the film also features Ludwig van Beethoven's Seventh Symphony and Gustav Mahler's Ninth Symphony.
  • The film is included in the list of prohibited for distribution in the Republic of Belarus.
  • In one of the scenes at the end of the film, a poster for "2001: A Space Odyssey" (1968) can be seen above Monica Bellucci’s head. According to Gaspar Noé, it is his favorite film.
  • The film consists of thirteen episodes of varying lengths, edited in reverse chronological order.
  • The film's tagline, “Time destroys everything,” is the first phrase heard in the film, and also the last.
  • The film gained notoriety due to two scenes: a seven-minute-long anal rape of the character played by Monica Bellucci, Alex, and the brutal murder of a visitor in the gay club "Straight Gut" (over twenty blows to the head with a fire extinguisher).
