The Idea of You/Trivia

== Trivia ==
* Fans believe Harry Styles inspired the romance novel 'The Idea of You' because Hayes Campbell is a young British musician who is the lead singer of the fictional band August Moon, much like the former One Direction singer. Styles and Campbell also share similar taste in women, as the "Watermelon Sugar" singer dated Olivia Wilde, who is ten years older than he is. 
* Solène's office features a poster of pioneering abstract Swedish artist Hilma af Klint, whose paintings are among the first abstract works known in Western art history. 
* Anne Hathaway and Nicholas Galitzine each starred in Cinderella adaptations--Ella Enchanted (2004) and Cinderella (2021), respectively. 
* Anne Hathaway (Solène) and Nicholas Galitzine (Hayes) sing Somebody To Love by Queen in Cinderella adaptations. Hathaway in Ella Enchanted (2004) and Galitzine in Cinderella (2021) 
* Anne Hathaway and Nicholas Galtzine starred in a film with Minnie Driver. Galtzine played Minnie Driver's son in Cinderella(2021), while Anne worked with Minnie Driver in Ella Enchanted (2004) 
* The painting of trees by Solène's friend, Sarah, that she and Hayes admire in Sarah's studio that he later acquires for her is, in fact, by an artist named "Sarah." Her full name is Sarah Anne Johnson (Canadian b. 1976). 
* The movie ending is different than the book ending. At the end of the book, Solène admits that she was using Hayes and never loved him to get him to leave, despite being in love with him. He, of course, keeps texting her, and she declines. However, in the movie's ending, Hayes tells Solène that they will revisit their love in five years, and they meet again at her workplace. 
== Goofs ==
=== Continuity ===
* When Solène is sneaking Hayes out of her gallery, he sits in the passenger seat. Before he puts the seat back to hide from the paparazzi he lays his head on the head rest. When he puts the seat back up, the head rest is gone.
* When Solene is talking to Hayes in her friend's art storage, her hair is in different positions though out the scene, while she's not moving.
=== Incorrectly regarded as goofs ===
* When the daughter is talking to her mother in Europe it's daytime outside at both locations. Seeing as it's the summer, this could be possible - if it were 10 am in California, it would still be light out at 7 pm in Rome or Paris.
=== Miscellaneous ===
* When Solene is reading the negative social media posts about her, the last two have the same handle (@Zappy_Moonhead) but different profile pictures (the first is a male and the second is a female). All the other handles are unique.
=== Plot holes ===
* Daniel buys Izzy a car over the summer for her 17th birthday, an indication she can drive. It is unclear why later on both her parents are still driving her to and picking her up from school.
