Vanity Fair

Visible crew/equipment: In the scene where Reese Witherspoon and her husband send their boy off to boarding school: as the carriage moves away from the shot, the camera man and sound man are shown in the back window of the carriage.

Factual error: When Joseph Sedley presents Becky Sharp with the parrot, he says it is because she loves all things that come from India. The Blue and Gold Macaw, however, is native to South America. (The director's commentary makes it clear that she is aware of this. (She could hardly not be, coming from India.) It was a bit of "poetic license.")

Becky Sharp: Well, the disguise is convincing.
