Directed by: Peyton Reed
Starring: Ewan McGregor, Renée Zellweger, David Hyde Pierce, Sarah Paulson
Visible crew/equipment: When the book becomes a bestseller we see several shots of bookstores around the world. Watch the Chinese bookstore's glass. In the left hand corner you can see the reflection of metal tubes from the camera and the props.
Visible crew/equipment: In a scene where Peter is coming over to Catcher's apartment, the microphone is visible on the top of the shot. It is quickly removed once Catcher looks behind the camera.
Factual error: David Hyde Pierce mentions the Cuban Missile Crisis, which took place in October 1962. The time of year in the movie isn't entirely clear, but given the weather conditions it's almost certainly spring or summer, or several months before the Cuban Missile Crisis.
Peter MacMannus: Catch, you are the best friend a guy with twenty diagnosed neuroses ever had.
Catcher Block: Oh, we've been friends a long time... I knew you when you only had twelve.
Trivia: The ending song scene, during the credits - singing wasn't strange to either of the actors: Zellwegger had a leading role in Chicago, and McGregor in Moulin Rouge, movies where they had several song scenes. In fact, the scene was only added at the insistence of the actors.
Question: When the start credits are playing, is it Renee Zellweger and Ewan McGregor singing?
Answer: No; Holly Palmer and Michael Bublé.
