Visible crew/equipment: When the three boys are leaning up in their chairs in the "King of New York" song, there are hands visible that are pushing the chairs up.
Newsies (1992)
1 visible crew/equipment mistake
Directed by: Kenny Ortega
Starring: Robert Duvall, Bill Pullman, Christian Bale, Max Casella, Luke Edwards, David Moscow
Continuity mistake: As Jack Kelly rides the horse near the end of the "Santa Fe" sequence, his hat is waving behind him. When it cuts to a different angle the hat is on his head. Note: This was a specific detail put in by the director, symbolizing the boy's mental transition from New York to Santa Fe. However, it failed and is commonly seen as an editing mistake.
Jack Kelly: So what do you say, Spot?
Spot Conlon: I say... that what you say... is what I say.
Question: During the song "The World Will Know," Jack climbs up onto the balcony of the World building to write the word "Strike" on the headline chalkboards. As he's climbing, between lines of the song, you can hear him yelling. All I can hear of the first line is "Pulitzer." I'm pretty sure the second line is "You think you own the world." Anybody know what he's saying there?
