TRIVIA AND POPULAR DIALOGUES

Trivia

The cliffhanger ending suggests Alexei may have survived the massacre at Ipatev House, as his body (along with one of his sisters') had never been recovered. However, approximately eleven years after this movie's release, remains found near the Ipatev House site were unearthed and confirmed to be Alexei's, thus rendering this movie's ambiguous finale anachronistic.

Filmed in only eight weeks.

John Wood (Pyotr Stolypin) previously played Colonel Kobylinsky in Nicholas and Alexandra (1971), which depicted many of the same events.

Actor Tamás Tóth plays the part of Young Rasputin, clearly appearing to be a child of about 13 years of age. But the actor was born on December 2, 1958, so he was about 37 years old, at the time of filming (1995).

For the scene where Rasputin is assassinated, it had to be re shot numerous times do to technical difficulties with the prop weapons. Alan Rickman ended up having to eat around 18 of the bouchées(small cakes) and drank 18 glasses of wine which was really grape juice. Towards the end he became very nauseous. He ended up needing medicine from the pharmacy.

Popular Dialogues

"Grigori Rasputin: Before we can repent, we have to sin."

"Tsar Nicholas II: [to Alexandra] Smile. I never see you smile. Do you remember the little cottage we stayed in when we visited your family in Germany? And the picnics we used to have, and the songs we sang under the chestnut trees? Tsarina Alexandra: What in the world made you think of that? Tsar Nicholas II: And how those fisherman splashed us with their oars and didn't know who we were. We were soaked all over. And how we never ever wanted to leave... we are locked in, the key has been lost and now we must stay there forever. [they kiss]"
