Factual error: When Weigand and Bergman are meeting for the first time in the Seelbach Hotel, Bergman asks Weigand if he's always lived in Louisville. The shot shows some small buildings on the outskirts of downtown Louisville, implying that what is being shown is downtown Louisville. In actuality, the main business district of downtown is on the other side of the hotel.

1 factual error
Directed by: Michael Mann
Starring: Christopher Plummer, Al Pacino, Russell Crowe, Michael Gambon, Philip Baker Hall, Diane Venora
Continuity mistake: Halfway through the film, Al Pacino phones his assistant who is sleeping. She turns on the light and picks up the phone. In the background you can see a tall building with all the lights on. When the director cuts back to her the building is not there. (02:17:45)
Sharon Tiller: Get some perspective, Lowell.
Lowell Bergman: I got perspective.
Sharon Tiller: No, you do not.
Lowell Bergman: From my perspective, what's been going on and what I've been doing is ridiculous. It's half-measures.
Sharon Tiller: You're not listening. Really know what you're gonna do before you do it.
