Birdman or (The Unexpected Virtue of Ignorance)

Factual error: The film makes use of a real Broadway theater, the St. James, which is on West 44th St. When they leave the stage door, the actors are next to the Edison Hotel, which is on 47th St.

Visible crew/equipment: After Riggan ran across Times Square in his underwear and comes into the theatre's entrance, the shot suddenly turns left towards the ticket office, on whose golden shelf the cameraman's legs are reflected. (01:15:04)
