Visible crew/equipment: During the first credits, when the name Kevin Bacon appears on-screen there's a close-up shot of a bayonet. A white screen used for lighting and filming is perfectly visible reflected on the metal.
A Few Good Men (1992)
1 visible crew/equipment mistake - chronological order
Directed by: Rob Reiner
Starring: Tom Cruise, Kevin Bacon, Kiefer Sutherland, Jack Nicholson, Demi Moore, Kevin Pollak, J.T. Walsh, Christopher Guest, James Marshall
Continuity mistake: In one scene when Sam and Jo are leaving Danny's apartment, there is a wide shot showing Daniel opening the door, then there is a close up of Daniel and Sam, and Sam opens the door again.
Lt. Daniel Kaffee: My client is a moron. That's not against the law.
Trivia: All of Jack Nicholson's scenes were filmed in only 10 days.
Question: While questioning the doctor on the witness stand, Kaffee asks him if a heart condition could have caused the fatal lactic acidosis rather than a mysterious poison on the rag stuffed in his mouth. Under the circumstances of the Marine's death, wouldn't a complete autopsy have been performed to positively determine the cause of death? And if an autopsy were performed, wouldn't the heart condition have easily been discovered?
Answer: An autopsy can show what physically caused a death, but not necessarily what led up to it. Kaffee is trying to prove that there could be more than one reason for the marine's death.
