  • Billing Displacement: Some film posters and DVD covers of the movie adaptation play up the fact that David Bowie appears in the film, in some cases even showing him more prominently than the main character about whom the story revolves. And that while Bowie was only a minor reference in the original book, when Christiane mentioned that she visited a concert of his. In the film, however, a long scene shows her attending a concert of his where he performs two of his hits. The entire story is interrupted a while for this moment Pandering to the Base. That said it's about all of the famous singer seen in the entire film.
  • Completely Different Title:
    • The original German title is Wir Kinder von Bahnhof Zoo ("We, Children from Bahnhof Zoo").
    • In French, the novel is known as Moi, Christiane F., 13 ans, droguée, prostituée... ("Me, Christiane F., 13 years old, drug addict, prostitute...)".
