  • They shot all the scenes with the little girls first because they had to go to school
  • This scene shows Kirsten's character is more of a town girl and is A okay with exposing her shoulders
  • Coppola read etiquette books for the time as research, learned that wearing makeup and saying thank you to compliments was considered vulgar because they invited male attention
  • Only used candles as a light source to stay true to 1800s lighting
