Christina Ricci and Johnny Depp found it strange and amusing to do sex scenes with each other because they first met when she was 9 and he was 26, when he visited the set of her debut film Mermaids (1990) to see his then-girlfriend Winona Ryder. She said during an interview with ABC News, "I've known Johnny so long, he's protective of me as an older brother and it's weird to think of having sex with him. So we know enough about each other to laugh at it. He said it was 'like we were rooting around together like pigs.' Anyway, I don't think you ever really deal with sexuality on-screen. There are, like, 50 people watching you, and you're just, like, 'Uh, I hope my ass looks good.' There's no deep feeling there. It's just embarrassing."
The actors and musicians that play Cesar's family are members of the Romanian music group Taraf de Haidouks.
The third film where Christina Ricci appears with Johnny Depp, after Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas (1998) and Sleepy Hollow (1999) (in which they also played love interests).
