Factual error: The film takes place in a private boarding school the 1950's, however one of the students is studying from a 1980's chemistry textbook.

Trivia
There is a song called "A change of seasons" by an American band called 'Dream Theater', which was inspired by this film. The song goes on for almost 25 minutes, and there are various clips and soundbites from the film (ie: Carpe Diem, and the part when Robin Williams whispers 'Seize the Day' near the beginning of the film). Also, 'Gather ye Rosebuds while ye may...' is used in the song as well. While it might sound like a metal song at first, it goes through various changes, from metal, to classical, to rock etc...hence changing the seasons. See more...
