Curiosidades
Alan Rickman read the script and actually suggested Sigourney Weaver for the role of Linda Freeman. He even telephoned Weaver, and told her she had to read the script, as there was a role he felt she could play perfectly in it. Rickman and Weaver had previously worked together in the film Heróis Fora de Órbita (1999), where Rickman's character was also named Alex.

Erros de gravação
In the film's beginning Alex exits the restaurant. In the window it says White River. He is driving to Winnipeg which is west of White River. However Vivienne has a sign that says Wawa. That means he would be heading east back to Wawa instead of west to Winnipeg.

Citações
Linda Freeman: B-A-A-N-G.
Alex Hughes: You can't have two A's in bang.
Linda Freeman: In Comic Book Word Scrabble, you can. You can have three A's if you want.

Cenas durante ou pós-créditos
During the end credits, an occasional letter flakes off, morphs into a snowflake, floating off-screen.

heartbreaking - and not just for ASD professionals

I was able to see this as part of the recent Autism Cymru conference, and can honestly say that this is one of the best films I have seen for years. It somehow maintains a balance between the drama, the need to establish Weaver's character without mawkishness or making her a complete freak, and a rite of passage for Rickman's character. There was no point at which I doubted the authenticity of the character's experiences. It does help to know something about autism (I am a parent of someone with ASD and parts of this were so true it hurt) but not compulsory, and I would heartily recommend it to dispel some myths! I can't really tell you more without giving it all away - go and see it! Snow Cake is both poignant and rib-achingly funny in parts.

We were also fortunate to meet the writer, the director and the autistic woman who "coached" Sigourney Weaver. Absolutely fascinating. I can't wait for this to be released and will be buying the DVD for friends and family.
