'Final Portrait' trivia and fun facts

No acting

This is the first film Stanley Tucci directed which he did not act in.

Director Stanley Tucci claims not to like biopics, so he took some poetic licenses in order to create a different biopic, more like a deep vision of Giacometti's personality.

Paris?

London doubled for Paris in the film because they couldn't afford to film in Paris. Filming took place over a week and a half and CGI was used to make it look like Paris. According to Tucci, it was cheaper for a small film to use CGI than to visit the real location.
