* WhiteMaskOfDoom: Christiane's mask, which hides [[spoiler: her horrifyingly disfigured face]].

* FakeNationality: AlidaValli (who played Louise) was Italian.
** Actually, it's stated by one of the characters that Louise was "a foreigner" (nationality unspecified), so it's not really a case of FakeNationality, as the character in question wasn't French.



* HighOctaneNightmareFuel: The surgery scenes, for one. Then you'll never see accommodating middle-aged women (or AlidaValli, for that matter) the same way ever again. And of course, [[spoiler:Christiane's face]].
