Wissenswertes
The boy on whom Tadzio was based, Wladyslaw Gerard Jan Nepomuk Marya Moes, was only 10 in May 1911.

Patzer
A scene near the end of the film shows a beautiful setting sun over the water. But the beach of Venice's Lido faces east, and the sun sets only in the west. The sunset from the Lido beach cannot be seen over water.

Zitate
Alfred: Do you know what lies at the bottom of the mainstream? Mediocrity.

Alternative Versionen
The 'pan and scan' VHS released in 1993 by Warner Home Video has an extended overture of music over black - and after the opening titles goes to a hard cut, mid-shot, of Bogarde sitting on the deck of a ship (totally omitting the opening establishing shot of the the ship at sea in long shot - and much of the subsequent establishing shot of Bogarde.)

"Death in Venice" after 30-plus years

I first saw "Death in Venice" when it was initially released in 1971. Today, I saw it again (by chance!) while I was channel-surfing. It had the same hypnotic effect on me that it had then. To wit: I sat down, vacuum cleaner in hand, and remained there. In 1971, at age 21, I recognized the film's poignancy but not in the way I was able to now, at age 56. Yes, it's slow-moving and not very much "happens". But its beauty, especially the wonderful close-ups and the use of Mahler's music, endures. Those familiar with Thomas Mann's novella of the same name,and other of his works (e.g., The Magic Mountain) will recall that nothing much "happens" in these stories, either. However, these classics (both in print and film) are apt to remain with us long after the latest special effects action film has disappeared.
