    • Trivia
      When casting the part of Sarah, writer and director Richard Curtis auditioned a great many British girls, but kept saying, "I want someone like Laura Linney." The casting director eventually snapped and said, "Oh, for fuck's sake, get Laura Linney then." Linney then auditioned and got the part.
    • Goofs
      When Jamie revisits Aurelia, a Marseillaise cab can be seen at the airport, yet everyone in the city seems to understand Portuguese. This can be explained, however, by a large Portuguese community in Marseilles, who live in a common area and would be the ones who understood the language.
    • Quotes

      [neither understands the other's language]

      Jamie: [in English] It's my favorite time of day, driving you.

      Aurelia: [in Portuguese] It's the saddest part of my day, leaving you.

    • Crazy credits
      The list of the cast in the opening credits are arranged alphabetically according to their first name.
    • Alternate versions
      There are two instances of switched music between the UK and US versions of the film. In the UK version, the montage introducing the office Christmas party is set to "Too Lost in You" by Sugababes, while the US version of the film replaces it with "The Trouble With Love Is", performed by Kelly Clarkson. Then, during the second half of the end credits after the Clarkson song plays (for the second time in the US version) the UK version concludes with a cover of "Jump (For My Love)", performed by Girls Aloud. This song does not appear at all in the US version, which concludes with the Sugababes song that the UK version used at the party. The 2009 US Blu-Ray actually contains the UK cut of the film, while the original US DVD had the US cut.

    Love
    My deserted heart will always love you. Maybe now you have a person by your side, or today we are still alone for Christmas, don't be sentimental. There are always a lot of unsatisfactory people in life. I can't love the person I want to love. I miss important people every year. These regrets all seem like a test given by God. Even in the days of empty windows, there are traces of love. My deserted heart has always planted grass for you. After breaking through the iron shoes and looking forward to it, I believe true love will come. 10 groups of CPs, 10 pairs of lovers, 10 paths of happiness, from civilians to prime ministers, from childhood to old age, there are always miracles on the road of love people who have watched Mordern Love will love this one too. Festivals are not unique, because there are people who love each day full of hope. This is probably also the most touching part of this story-there are thousands of kinds of love, and life with each other is happy. I couldn't help crying several times, cheering for the protagonist, for myself, for every kind of life. Especially worth chewing carefully ~ All I want for Christmas is you. Christmas gifts, I only want you.
