Trivia:
This film is adapted from the 1920 novel The Age of Innocence by Edith Wharton.
To prepare for his role as Newland Archer, Daniel Day-Lewis checked into the Plaza Hotel as "N. Archer" and lived there for 2 weeks wearing clothes suitable to his film character.
This film happens to be Martin Scorsese's first to earn a "PG rating" since New York, New York (1977). Despite this, he has said that this is the "most violent" film he's ever made, an obvious reference to the emotional versus physical states of being.
Co-writer Jay Cocks first gave his friend Martin Scorsese a copy of Edith Wharton's novel back in 1980. At the time, he told Scorsese, "When you do that romantic piece, this one is you". It took Scorsese seven years to finally get around to reading the book.
