Alain Cuny, who plays Camille and Paul Claudel's father, actually met Paul Claudel. In 1944, Claudel, a poet and dramatist, personally chose Cuny to play Pierre de Craon in his play: The Tidings Brought to Mary.
A major scene in the movie depicts the announcement of the death of Victor Hugo. In The Story of Adele H (1975), Isabelle Adjani played Adèle Hugo, Victor Hugo's daughter who, like Camille Claudel, suffered from schizophrenia.
In 2019, to mark the 155th anniversary of Claudel's birth, Google released a Google Doodle commemorating her.
When her father died on 2 March 1913, Camille Claudel was not informed of his death. Instead, eight days later, on 10 March 1913, at the request of her younger brother Paul, she was admitted to the psychiatric hospital of Ville-Évrard in Neuilly-sur-Marne. Paul visited his confined older sister seven times in 30 years, in 1913, 1920, 1925, 1927, 1933, 1936, and 1943. He always referred to her in the past tense. Their sister Louise visited her just one time in 1929. Her mother, who died in June 1929, never visited Claudel. In 1929 sculptor and Claudel's former friend Jessie Lipscomb visited her, and afterwards insisted "it was not true" that Claudel was insane. Rodin's friend, Mathias Morhardt, insisted that Paul was a "simpleton" who had "shut away" his sister of genius.
The Musée Rodin in Paris has a room dedicated to her works.
