In 1985 the Padre's colors were brown and yellow. The color change didn't come until late 80's or early 90's. 12602 The "American Consulate in Hong Kong" is actually the HSBC building. (The local audience laughed at that scene.) The actual consulate building is nearby, but perhaps not so photogenic. 12601 In Suzhou Prison, presumably the Suzhou near Shanghai, all the prison guards are speaking Cantonese, which is a southern dialect. They should be speaking either Mandarin (Putonghua) or their regional dialect. 13271 In the scene where Brad Pitt meets Robert Redford on the roof of a house in Berlin in (I think it was) 1980, you can see a lot of GSM transmitters. GSM cell transmitters didn't come until 1993. 21181 In the scene where you can see Robert Redford sending a fax, there is a Tux doll (Linux mascot) on the wall. Funny, but this scene happens in 1991 and Tux was first designed in 1996.
