В голливудских фильмах часто можно встретить дисклеймер, то есть отказ от ответственности, звучащий примерно так: «Все имена и события вымышлены, любые совпадения с реальными людьми и событиями случайны». Кинокомпании стали использовать его после выхода фильма 1932 года «Распутин и императрица», прототипами персонажей которого Павла Чегодаева и Наташи стали князь Феликс Юсупов (замешанный в убийстве Распутина) и его жена княгиня Ирина Александрова Романова-Юсупова. Они подали иск к MGM о клевете и порочащих княгиню сведениях, ведь по сюжету картины Наташа была изнасилована Распутиным и стала его любовницей. Британский суд удовлетворил иск и присудил Юсуповым круглую сумму, но ещё больше им выплатила MGM за разрешение дальнейшего проката фильма.
