    • Trivia
      On the April 1st, 2022 installment of "The Lawfare" podcast, screenwriter Andrea Chalupa reports how during the course of filming "Mr. Jones", they reached out to the New York Times for permission to quote directly from Walter Duranty's article that denied a famine had taken place in Ukraine, but the Times refused to grant permission.
    • Goofs
      After the main character returns to Britain, he meets George Orwell in a restaurant. In this scene, at the very beginning, a modern cash register is visible, with a flat LCD monitor.
    • Quotes

      Walter Duranty: I read your article. Do you think Hitler really believes the things he said?

      Gareth Jones: Lots of people say he's deranged.

      Walter Duranty: What is "deranged" in a deranged world, hmm?

    • Crazy credits
      "With special thanks and in loving memory of Dr. Margaret Siriol Colley, the niece of Gareth Jones and Nigel Colley, his great-nephew for their tireless research and tending to his legacy.

      Thanks to the estate of the late Sonia Brownell Orwell for the use of quotations from Animal Farm by George Orwell."

    The Deaths of So Many...
    ... innocent comrades, as a result of tyrannical, incompetent and blinkered beliefs, in a system that still exists today bizarrely in some parts of the world. The famine of 1930s Russia and the man who bravely revealed those secrets presented in a down to earth and informative way with minimal poetic licence.
