Directed by: Todd Haynes

Revealing mistake: Right at the start there is a TV 'clip' showing the crowds outside the Lyceum. This is supposedly 1974 but you can quite see a pretty modern looking CCTV camera above the Lyceum door.
Revealing mistake: When everyone is running to the Brian Slade concert, Malcolm from The Flaming Creatures seems to accidentally drop his feather boa. But if you watch very closely, you can see him sneakily pull the boa from around his neck and throw it to the ground.
Factual error: Although the 1984 scenes are supposed to take place in New York, there are obvious shots of red double-decker buses and other London trademarks.
Brian Slade: I should think that if people were to get the wrong impression of me, the one to which you so eloquently referred, it wouldn't be the wrong impression in the slightest.
Trivia: In Jerry Devine's office, the floor-to-ceiling black and white photograph of a glamorous woman is Eddie Izzard (Jerry) in drag.
