Laurence Olivier first suggested Tom Baker to be cast as Grigori Rasputin. Olivier was the director of the National Theatre in England; Baker was a member of the company.
The movie includes many historical inaccuracies. When Robert K. Massie initially researched the source novel, the Soviet government would only authorize viewing of "approved" materials. After the Soviet Union fell apart in 1991, documents that had been hidden from the public could be fully examined and researched.
The director deliberately cast unfamiliar leads so the audience would focus on the storytelling.
Yul Brynner actively sought the role of Grigori Rasputin.
The movie could not be shown on television in the U.K. for many years because of a copyright problem.
"Tsar Nicholas II: Oh, God, but it's good to be alive! The Earth is like a field in summer, just bursting with good things. Someday, when all the wars are over, someone young will lead us to the harvest. As long as there are children, anything is possible."
"The Grand Duchess Tatiana Nikolaevna: [while confined in Yekaterinburg, a guard opens the door and peeks inside the room] Go away! What do you want? Do you want to see me? [she opens her robe and exposes herself to him] The Grand Duchess Tatiana Nikolaevna: Is that what you want? [he looks her over then leaves] The Grand Duchess Tatiana Nikolaevna: I'm twenty one, and I'm pretty! Everyone says I'm pretty! And that's the only man who's ever seen me. The Grand Duchess Olga Nikolaevna: [she embraces her sister] I know, I know. It's alright, my dear. He's gone, he's gone. The Grand Duchess Tatiana Nikolaevna: You know what's funny? I wanted to ask him in. Just once... I wanted somebody."
