Factual errors: Details of some historical characters and events have been changed to fit the dramatic narrative. (more)

Trivia:
It is never revealed in the film that George Boleyn is a homosexual, but in interviews, Jim Sturgess says that he's more like a girl because he not only is rather catty, but he also is repulsed by marriage of a woman or sleeping with a woman. That explains why he was so afraid of sleeping with Anne, besides the fact of treachery and incest. (more)
