Visible crew/equipment: When Brad Pitt is taken prisoner by the English, he tries to escape and is thrown in prison. As the camera turns back to the door, the shadow of a microphone is visible left to the door.
Heinrich Harrer: In this place where time stands still it seems like everything is moving. Including me. I can't say I know where I'm going nor if my bad deeds can be purified. There are so many things I have done that I regret. When I come to a full stop I hope you understand that the distance between us is not as great as it seems.
Trivia: Because of their roles in the film, both Brad Pitt and David Thewlis were banned from entering China.
