Trivia
The actors all had to live together in order to create a palpable feeling onscreen that they all knew each other. See more »Goofs
Factual errors: In his DVD commentary, director Danny Boyle says the original idea for Icarus I was to "be on its side, like the Zeebrugge". In fact, he is referring to the "Herald of Free Enterprise", the British ferry that capsized on 6 March 1987 while leaving the Belgian port of Zeebrugge. 193 passengers and crew were killed.
