Theatre stage curtains open and close the film.
There is a statement at the end of the closing credits: "This story is about truth, beauty, freedom, but above all, love."
When the film opens, an orchestra conductor can be spotted conducting the 20th Century Fox fanfare.
The ending credits are printed on two (very long) hand painted rolls of paper. The camera is still while the paper is scrolled past. The place where the two pieces are joined is clearly visible. The crew tried to hide the splice, but couldn't make it look good enough, and so decided to keep it as seen in the movie.
When the film's title is shown, a silhouette of a cutout can-can dancer dances across the title card, with other silhouettes of men in top hats below her.
