Corrected entry: At the beginning of the scene in which the locksmith arrives home, he is driving a right-hand drive van. In the next shot however, the locksmith is suddenly driving a left-hand drive before coming to a halt. (01:21:20)

Correction: Watch this again, the shot is not flipped. You are seeing the van turn the corner within the reflection of the sideview mirror - note the backwards stop sign and backwards writing on the side of the van.

Super Grover

Correction: In LAPD, a sergeant-1 (with three stipes) is considered a field supervisor. A lieutenant has the billet of watch commander. That is why Matt Dillion is in the field. He may also be acting as a field training officer, which is why he has a partner. Or, the shift may be low on cars, causing the field supervisor to "double-up", which is not uncommon. A sergeant-2 (with four stripes) has more of an administrative job, to include watch commander if needed.

Correction: This is true, but the piano is simply out of tune - many old pianos are! It's not really a mistake.

Corrected entry: When Officer Hanson and Peter are discussing country music right before Hanson shoots Peter, the country music station gives the call letters KYHE. No such station exits, in LA or anywhere else.

Correction: So what? This is not a documentary but a piece of fiction; as such, it is free to use nonexistent company/product names.

Corrected entry: In the end of the movie a noticeable amount of snow is falling, but snow hasn't fallen in Los Angeles since 1962. It simply doesn't happen.

Correction: It is indeed snow at the very end, but the submitter nullifies their own entry by acknowledging that snowfall has been documented in Los Angeles, regardless of how rare it is.

Phaneron

Correction: It's not snow, it's ash from the burning car the guy is standing next to.

Visible crew/equipment: In the beginning of the scene where Sandra Bullock is lying in bed talking to her maid, you can see the shadow of the boom on the pillow. It is not there very long, the shadow moves out of the scene quickly, but long enough to notice.

Ria: Graham, I think we got rear ended. I think we spun around twice, and somewhere in there, one of us lost our frame of reference. And I'm going to look for it.

Question: If Det. Graham had already identified his brother's body at the crime scene, why would it have been necessary for his mother to have to do so at the morgue, especially since it was very traumatic for her?

Macalou

Chosen answer: Since he was directly involved with the investigation, to identify the body would have been a conflict of interest. Therefore he had to notify the next of kin beyond himself.
