| Around the World in 80 Days (1956) / int_2bce38f7 | comment |
Balancing an Indian attack on the train by first having the train stop so the Engineer can share a Peace Pipe with a different Native American nation, who have no interest in attacking since they are satisfied by this gesture. | |

Brits Love Tea: Fix may regard Fogg's imminent escape from India as a "crisis", but the local British police chief isn't going to let that interrupt his tea or anything. Fogg having his tea served on a liner deck in the middle of a storm. | |

Pragmatic Adaptation | |
| Around the World in 80 Days (1956) / int_603f1a80 | comment |
Pragmatic Adaptation: The original story has Phileas Fogg travel in the autumn and winter of the year. This especially comes into play when he crosses the US, and uses a sledge. Evidently it proved necessary or more appropriate to film the movie in the summer; the date of the trip is changed accordingly. The journey by sledge on the prairies is turned into a journey on a handcar propelled by sail. Not so much necessary, but desired in that the book had Aouda soon changing her clothes to a typical European dress. However for most adapters, having this beautiful Indian woman deemphasizing her exoticness by losing her sari is unthinkable. Also, nowadays not having her accompany Fogg and Passepartout in the final sprint to the Reform Club makes the sequence feel incomplete. Balancing an Indian attack on the train by first having the train stop so the Engineer can share a Peace Pipe with a different Native American nation, who have no interest in attacking since they are satisfied by this gesture. | |

| Around the World in 80 Days (1956) / int_6dd49338 | comment |
Invisible President: In one of the film's many tongue-in-cheek scenes (S. J. Perelman was in charge of the screenplay, after all), there's a big buildup in which a newspaper is delivered to Queen Victoria... of whom all we see is one hand. | |

Dry Crusader: The final obstacle that very, but just barely nearly gets Fogg to lose the bet is Fogg running into a group of these who ask him for money, ask him to stay and pray in thanks when he gives them his final hundred-pound note, and try to make him stay and pray for his soul when he says he has to go because of a bet. | |

Cameo Cluster: Peter Lorre! Buster Keaton! Frank Sinatra? And Noël Coward, John Gielgud, Trevor Howard, Charles Boyer, Cesar Romero, Cedric Hardwicke, Ronald Colman, Charles Coburn, George Raft, Marlene Dietrich, Red Skelton, John Carradine, Andy Devine, and the list just keeps going from there. Part of the film's gimmick was its long parade of brief cameo appearances by familiar faces, keeping audiences wondering who would show up next. | |

| Around the World in 80 Days (1956) / int_fc7c4f92 | comment |
Canon Immigrant: Phileas Fogg's balloon ride happens not in the Verne novel, but in this film. The balloon ride has since become such an iconic part of the story that Michael Palin took a balloon ride in his 1989 travelogue, and modern printings of Verne's novel are sometimes published along with another Verne novel, Five Weeks in a Balloon, with a balloon on the cover. | |

Adaptational Nationality: Maybe? Jean Passepartout in the novel is a Frenchman, but is played by Mexican actor-comedian Cantinflas. On one hand he's surprisingly fluent in Spanish in the film, on the other he retains his original French name. | |
