When the fax arrives in the firm's security office about Tom's brother released from prison, it curls and falls to the floor parallel to the front of the fax machine. When the fax is found the next morning it is parallel to the side of the fax machine. [The fact that it is lightweight and curled into a cylinder means it could be moved around by air currents passing under the fax machine stand. For example, when the heat or air conditioning blows through a floor vent or when the door is opened and closed by the Firm's security people as they come in to search the office it could move. It is possible.]

Comments made in brackets are corrections from other visitors. As such, any aggressive/abusive corrections (and I get quite a few) written as if they're comments I've made myself will be ignored. To submit your own corrections for mistakes, just click the edit icon under an entry, then choose "correct entry". Some entries have "duplicated entry" after them - these are entries which were already listed on the main page, but were submitted again. I occasionally leave these online for a while, just in case they were moved in error, so don't worry about pointing them out to me.

When Tom and his wife enter their new home supplied by the law firm, there is a bucket with champagne and ice which is not in the least melted, even though there was no way for the law firm to know exactly what time Tom and the little missus would arrive. [I don't think this is an error at all. I think it is an early clue as to just how sneaky "the firm" is. I'm sure they had someone following them from their old apartment, and reported ahead as to when they would arrive. ]
When Mitch meets with the mafia guys to ask about their billing errors, before his arrival there is a large black pyramid shaped building seen through the window. In subsequent scenes it is not there. [This building is the Memphis Pyramid sporting arena. The reason you only see it once is because that one shot is out a different window that is a 90 degree right angle from the window that all the other shots feature.
