Principal photography began on the 10th of July 2002 in Romania. Production moved to Eastern Europe to reduce expenses while maintaining visual authenticity.
Cold Mountain grossed $173 million worldwide with $95.6 million from the United States and Canada plus $77.4 million internationally. Harvey Weinstein stated the film would break even if it reached $135 million.
Walter Murch edited Cold Mountain using Apple's sub-$1000 Final Cut Pro software on several off-the-shelf PowerMac G4 computers. This marked a significant industry shift since expensive Avid systems were usually required for big-budget films.
Jack White of The White Stripes wrote songs for the album while also appearing as Georgia in the film. T Bone Burnett produced the soundtrack alongside Tim Eriksen who taught performers Sacred Harp singing techniques.
