Trivia:
The schoolteacher played by Anton Lesser was called "Benech" in the novel, but the small French town in which much of the movie was based had a popular mayor whose name was similar, so officials asked that the name be changed. He's called "Renech" in the final version. moreGoofs:
Errors in geography: In the opening shot, a train carrying Charlotte to London is shown crossing a viaduct in the Scottish Highlands. The viaduct in question is the Glenfinnan viaduct, and in the distance you can see the Glenfinnan Monument to Bonny Prince Charlie. The train is clearly traveling North, away from London. moreQuotes:
Psychiatrist: Of these three, which in your view is the most important: Faith, hope or love?Charlotte Gray: Hope.

"Charlotte Gray" is pretty, melodramatic claptrap.
I'm a fan of director Gillian Armstrong, but this is a long way from her Aussie feminist films "My Brilliant Career" and "High Tide."
No heart-tugging element of World War II is left out, including a heavy-handed Holocaust touch, but Cate Blanchett (the Sheryl Crow of movies for ubiquity lately) looks and talks pretty and gosh I'd go see square-jawed Billy Crudup in anything.
The packed audience of senior citizens talking away was certainly willing to be swept back to the way movies used to be made -- superficially entertaining with beautiful French and Scottish scenery.
