The role of Lilli Hoffman (Snow White) was originally written with Alicia Silverstone in mind.

Lilli's actual medical condition from the poisoned apple is called "locked-in syndrome," in which she is "imprisoned" within her body, remaining aware and awake but cannot communicate verbally or move the body except for the eyes. (Claudia describing the condition: "You can see, and you can hear, but from inside the tomb of your mind. No breath will escape your lips, no tears your eyes. To the world, you are dead... But you, my dear, you will have all eternity to remember.")

This film was originally slated for theatrical release but wound up debuting on Showtime in the U.S.

The snake that frightens Lilli in the forest is a Boa Constrictor, not native to Europe.

When Lilly encounters the outcast there is a speck of dirt on her face, it then disappears then reappears several times.

The tree Lilli picks the apple from near her mother's grave is in fact an oak tree.

Claudia Hoffman: You can see, and you can hear, but from inside the tomb of your mind. No breath will escape your lips, no tears your eyes. To the world, you are dead. And soon, even your precious father will forget... you were ever alive. But you, my dear, you will have all eternity... to remember.

Will: It's snowing.

Lars: He dreams of fire. They tied him to a stake, then burned his family while he watched. And then they placed a red-hot cross of iron across his face, because he would not repent.
