Double Indemnity

Visible crew/equipment: At the beginning, Walter is waiting for Mrs Dietrichson in the lounge, and as she is using her lipstick in the mirror you can see the shadow of some equipment sweep upwards (probably the boom mic) on the far left side of the screen. They are the only two people in the room. (00:09:48)

Factual error: There's a scene when Barbara Stanwyck hides behind an open door to avoid beeing seen by Edward G.Robinson leaving Fred MacMurray`s apartment. To make this possible the apartment door opens outside into the corridor, which is an elegant solution for this situation in the movie. But in the real world no apartment door would open by swinging into the corridor because this would give a visitor standing there a punch on the nose when the resident opens the door.
