Trivia from Shadows and Fog

• Based on a one-act comedy play called "Death", published in Woody Allen's Without Feathers (1972), the play and movie are themselves a pastiche of Franz Josef Kafka's work in general, and of his novel "The Trial" in particular.
• After the filming was completed, Donald Pleasence was flown from California to reshoot his scenes with a new supporting cast. And then his name was misspelled in the film credits.
• Shadows and Fog marks one of Woody Allen's frequent returns to the use of magic and magical realism in his movies.
