Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaThis movie created the idea of "cameo roles" as a way to invite established stars to participate in a production.
- GoofsIn San Francisco the prostitutes jump off a wagon full of beer barrels marked 'Pabst Blue Ribbon.' It was called Select until 1882. Due to their practice of tying a blue ribbon around the neck, it was frequently asked for as 'that blue ribbon beer.'
- Quotes
Princess Aouda: Have there been any women in his life?
Passepartout: I assume he had a mother, but I am not certain.
- Crazy creditsThe last line of dialogue is "This is the end". The closing credits then begin with the words WHO WAS SEEN IN WHAT SCENE ... AND WHO DID WHAT. The story is then recapped in 6 minutes of simple, minimally animated cartoon images, allowing the names of the many cast members who each appeared in just one scene to be shown in relation to that scene, often adjacent to a cartoon image of their character. The cast is therein listed in order of appearance. The character names don't appear. Some of the crew credits (WHO DID WHAT) are interspersed with the cast credits, with the remainder at the end. The very last thing shown is the film's title.
- Alternate versionsWhen Warner Bros. bought the rights to this film from Elizabeth Taylor (to whom United Artists lost control of the film in the 1970s) for its later re-releases, some prints were heavily edited. An uncut print of the 35mm version has been shown on cable TV.

Featured review
My favorite film of all times.
Cataloged as one of the best movies of all times (It won 5 Oscars, included the Best Film). I have the creed to see it, at least once a year. It's simply a sensational movie, a giant production (Mike Todd); of those that were made at the time of the spectacular films. It is based, almost verbatim, on the famous novel by Jules Verne. Very well directed and owner of a pompous and unique scenography in each and every one of the locations in which it was filmed. Excellent performances and no waste. However, the interpreter who steals the show, eclipsing to David Niven and Shirley McLaine is, yes you guessed it, Mario Moreno ("Cantinflas"). I remember seeing her in my early childhood and having enjoyed an unparalleled world of pleasurable sensations: Colorful, adventure, intrigue, romance, beautiful music and, above all, healthy humor. If you are going to enjoy it, do it with the little ones in the house. It is long with desire but it is worth it.
