Homage: The musical scenes are in the style of Jacques Demy's own musicals such as The Umbrellas of Cherbourg, with even mundane conversations being done in song. The casting of his son Mathieu Demy is not a coincidence.

Really Gets Around: Jeanne nonchalantly comments to her sister about having "only" three boyfriends at the moment, and it's shown the relationships are fully sexual. Falling in love with Olivier causes her to choose monogamy (though it ends up being in vain).
