The top mistakes in Michael Collins http://www.moviemistakes.com/film827 en Sat, 21 Nov 2009 06:55:06 +0000 131852 Early in the film, Michael talks to Harry Boland on a boat. During this scene, a cigarette appears in Boland's mouth that was not in the previous shot. 9145 During one of the cabinet meetings, one of the members says Collins' brief is Minister for Intelligence, but he was actually Minister of Finance. He was, however, the IRA's Director Of Intelligence. 11617 When Liam Neeson is on the boat on his return from England there is a shot of the water and part of the boat where you can see a modern CCTV camera on the side of one of the masts - rather advanced for the time the film was set. 18653 The Lee Enfield rifle is chambered by singular repetitions with a bolt action. When Collins' wayward friend is shot in the water, the rifle shots are rapid semi-automatic fire. 41474 When Kitty reads Michael's letter from England to Harry, there's some strange smoke arising from behind their chairs.
