Anecdotes
One of the last CinemaScope movies released in the wider aspect ratio of 2.55:1. Beginning later that year, the aspect ratio of CinemaScope movies was changed to 2.35:1, because of the optional mono soundtrack now printed on the film, in addition to the four stereo ones. This mono soundtrack was added to most movies recorded in stereo because not all theaters were willing to convert their sound systems.

Gaffes
The London pillar boxes weren't painted red (as seen) until 1874; before that, they were green.

Above average adaptation

Although not as engaging as the original play, This film adaptation of BARRETTS OF WIMPOLE ST is a very well made film. John Gielgud gives one of his finest screen performances as Edward Barrett, he is despicable yet worthy of pity. Jennifer Jones is strong as Elizabeth and her character unfolds beautifully before your eyes. The actors who play the clan of brothers nicely delineate each role so they are individuals and not a unit. this film does suffer a bit from the over emphasis on the elizabeth/browning relationship as opposed to the father/daughter one but I suppose this was the hollywood trend toward romance at the time.
