Trivia
The house where Frieda Pinto's character lives is the same house where Anne Hathaway's character lived in 'Becoming Jane'.

Goofs
In the dancing scene when a waltz is called none of the principal characters actually dance the waltz, which is a rather rigid form in 3/4 time that first became popular in Austria or Germany in the 1770s-1780s. In fact the diegetic music sort of fades out and becomes 4/4 background music to which the characters dance as a far-too-modern mundane 'slow-dance' number typical of the 1980s or later.

Quotes
Julia Thistlewaite: So, what did he say about me?
Selina Dalton: Um, merely that he escorted you to the opera. I must admit, Julia, that does not seem such a heinous crime.
Julia Thistlewaite: Did he tell you about my eyelashes?

Crazy credits
The end credits are accompanied by caricature illustrations as mentioned in the plot.

Good Enough

'' Mr. Malcolm's List '' is a period romantic drama.

The movie has a fun story, based on a novel with the same title, and the whole story brings in mind Jane Austen vibes.

In addition, the characters were fun and feisty and their chemistry was strong and enjoyable. The performances by every actor and actress in the cast, which were all enjoyable, aided to the success of the movie.

And yes the casting is unrealistic for a period drama, but, as the performances were strong and the settings and costumes spot on, so it can be easily overlooked.

Finally, the movie did a good job presenting the story.
