Factual error: In the scene at the zoo after Chris, Marissa and Ty are leaving the penguin enclosure, she and Ty are shown departing the zoo through a gate immediately adjacent to the left of the penguin house. In reality, while there is a gate there, it is never opened, the main entrance/exit is across the courtyard past the seal pool.
Maid in Manhattan (2002)
1 factual error
Directed by: Wayne Wang
Starring: Ralph Fiennes, Jennifer Lopez, Stanley Tucci, Natasha Richardson
Continuity mistake: When Marisa is going to the gala, she is wearing a peach chiffon wrap. When she enters the gala, it is gone and never to be seen again, (even when she leaves the gala and Chris follows her out).
Lionel: To serve people takes dignity and intelligence. But remember, they are only people with money. And although we serve them, we are not their servants. What we do, Miss Ventura, does not define who we are. What defines us is how well we rise after falling.
Trivia: Julia Roberts was considered for the starring role of the maid, but she read an early version of the script and declined. Sandra Bullock was reportedly interested at one point.
Question: Which hotel is used for filming the one where Marissa works?
