Suggested correction: I just watched this scene. It's shot in broad daylight. There are no big "film" lights on either side of the pier, rather regular light posts you'd normally find on a pier. On the DVD timestamp listed, it's a shot of Robert Duvall looking for D-Fens. The shot cuts forward to a tracking shot of him running. I don't see film lights at all. Shots like this wouldn't need film lights. Maybe diffusers and reflectors but not huge film lights.

Visible crew/equipment: After D-Fens has crossed the golf course and climbed into the garden with the family barbecue, he slumps against a wall as he talks to the family. We get a close-up of D-Fens for a good 30 seconds or so, and during this time the camera lens is very clearly visible as a reflection in D-Fens' glasses. (01:26:40 - 01:28:10)

Visible crew/equipment: In the beginning of the movie, during the traffic jam, the camera pans from D-FENS to the car in front of him and then to the right to the car with the Garfield toy stuck to the window. You can see equipment (a statue, some wires and a white screen) in the reflection of the window. (00:01:30)

Continuity mistake: When D-Fens attacks the Oriental shopkeeper he puts his foot on the shopkeeper's neck and his socks are clearly visible as white. However, a few minutes later when he removes his shoe to examine a hole in it on the hill, before being confronted by the two homeboys - his socks have somehow changed to black. (00:10:20 - 00:18:15)

Questions

Question: Why does the Beggar throw the apple at D-fens? I found it odd since he just gave him a briefcase and a lunch.

Gavin Jackson

Chosen answer: Because the beggar thought there would be items of value in the briefcase and he was frustrated that there was nothing in there. So in frustration he threw the apple at D-Fens.
