Continuity mistake: When Luis is standing in front of the pool table talking to Eddie and his men, there are three pool cues on the table, one on the left and two on the right; when Eddie's men push Luis back on the table, the two on the right turn into one. (Don't get it confused with the one Thay picks up that was the one on the left.)

Trivia: Although Adrian Brody was officially the star of "Hollywoodland," his character (private detective Louis Simo) was a completely fictional role in the movie. Virtually all of the other characters in the film are based on real people, but there never was a Louis Simo, and he's not based on any actual person (s). George Reeves' mother did hire an attorney and a detective agency in real life; however, "Hollywoodland" director Allen Coulter said that the character of Louis Simo wasn't even partially based on anyone in real life.
