Sin City (2005)

Trivia: There is a bit of Frank Miller trivia hidden on screen during the segment when Jackie Boy and his soldiers enter the apartment of Brittany Murphy. On the t-shirt of the soldier (the one Shellie threatens with the knife), there is a symbol of a peace sign in a circle with a star on the left and stripes on the right. That is the symbol for the P.A.X. forces from Frank Miller's comic about Martha Washington, such as in "Give Me Liberty".

Trivia: Johnny Depp seems to get his look for Edward Scissorhands from the classic Cabinet Of Dr. Caligari. Watch the original version of Dr. Caligari and notice how much the look and mannerisms of the somnambulist Cesare resemble Edward. The hair, the eyes, Even the makeup is similar.

Stir of Echoes (1999)

Trivia: The alley that Katherine Erbe goes down to visit the big, black guy Neal is the same alley that Kiefer Sutherland goes down in Flatliners before he first gets beaten by the hockey stick kid. Kiefer crosses an intersection and gets passed by cyclists right before he goes down the alley. It's shot years apart and the neighborhood has changed a bit, but I assure you (I live nearby), it is the same alley entrance.
