Question: Can someone translate the French from the bar scene with Sophie? I caught a bit with the "together" near the end. Practicing French together? (01:11:00)

Answer: "You speak French?" "Yes." "Me, I speak a little French." "I lived in Paris for a year." "Paris! It's the city of light, is it not?" "Yes!" "And of love! It's good to speak French, because I haven't had the chance to practice speaking it much." "If you'd like, we can practice many things together." "Y-yes? Goodbye, remember my name is Adam Webber!" "Goodbye!"

Continuity mistake: When Calvin first goes back up to the surface, he encounters the bartender. The bartender is shown as himself moving at first then he freezes while Calvin's light is on him. Again it shows the bartender but you can tell if you look close enough he is just a piece of cardboard falling to the ground. Then Calvin tells the bartender to leave his elevator alone. (00:27:03)

Question: At the end they talk about how Eve was from Ukraine, wouldn't Calvin still be pissed since that was part of the USSR?

Answer: Not necessarily. Most Soviet bloc states were not members by choice. The Ukraine especially was grievously harmed by Russia and the Soviets.
