The top mistakes in Radio http://www.moviemistakes.com/film3683 en Sat, 21 Nov 2009 06:55:19 +0000 43671 About fifteen minutes into the film, Ed Harris is in his home watching film from the previous game. In the background, but purposely featured to make comparisons between Harris' character and former Alabama coach Paul "Bear" Bryant, is a commemorative Bear Bryant Coca-Cola bottle. The bottle commemorates the Bear's then-record 315th career victory as a head coach - a feat accomplished in 1981, five years AFTER the movie's 1976 setting. 67550 At the beginning of the movie when all the guys are in the barber shop, a man is wearing a John Deere hat with the modern logo, not the one from 1976. 50076 In the beginning of the film, Radio is walking down the street in town. He is approaching a woman with her child who looks at Radio in disgust and pulls her child towards the curb to cross the street. Two shots later, Radio has bypassed the woman and the child by at least 20 feet, but they are just stepping away from the curb and into the street. 53827 In the scene where Coach Jones finds Radio in the shed, he pulls out his knife to cut the tape. In the first shot you can see the blade out. As it switches shots you can see him pull out the blade, then it switches back to the previous shot of the blade already out. 87445 When Coach Jones goes into the bank after he talks with the guy from the board, we can see a new VW Beetle on the street. Obviously way past the time the movie was set in.
