Directed by: Mike Nichols
Starring: Calista Flockhart, Dianne Wiest, Gene Hackman, Hank Azaria, Nathan Lane, Robin Williams
Other mistake: When the friends are hanging the mouse head, they tell Call it was from the antique shop across the street. But in the opening shot, it's obvious that the Birdcage faces the waterfront.
Suggested correction: The club is on a corner. It could be the side street.
Continuity mistake: Robin Williams is filling the bowls with soup. The next shot there is more soup in them than he gave them.
Albert Goldman: Whatever I am, he made me! I was adorable once, young and full of hope. And now look at me! I'm this short, fat, insecure, middle-aged THING!
Armand: I made you short?
Trivia: Agador Spartacus is based upon Hank Azaria's grandmother.
Question: When Senator Keeley thinks that the Goldmans are acting weird because of Senator Jackson's death and Albert replies to him about how it's dreadful news etc., did Albert know about Jackson's death, or did he just improvise on the spot?
Chosen answer: Most likely, he improvises on the spot, dodging and recovering, as he did all the way through the scene.
