James Wilby and Rupert Graves played love rivals in this movie, but in the Merchant Ivory movie, Maurice (1987), they played lovers.
The passages read aloud by Tony (James Wilby) when he has to read Charles Dickens to Mr. Todd (Sir Alec Guinness) are "Bleak House" and "Hard Times". Later, Mr. Todd also mentions another Dickens book, "Little Dorrit", of which Guinness appeared in a 1987 filmed adaptation. Guinness starred in such Dickens movie adaptations as Scrooge (1970), Oliver Twist (1948), Little Dorrit (1987), and Great Expectations (1946).
