Visible crew/equipment: About 20 minutes in, when the group of guys exits the lift and they see the large line of people, a boom mic is reflected in the window of the Crabtree & Evelyn shop.
World Trade Center (2006)
1 visible crew/equipment mistake - chronological order
Directed by: Oliver Stone
Starring: Nicolas Cage, Maria Bello, Maggie Gyllenhaal, Connor Paolo, Anthony Piccininni
Factual error: Rescuer and US Marine Jason Thomas is an African-American in real life, but was portrayed in the film as a white man. The film's producers realized the mistake only after production began, and apologized to Thomas, whose identity had not been widely known for years after September 11th.
Will Jimeno: Don't fall asleep, Sarge.
Trivia: Outside the Port Authority terminal is a statue of Jackie Gleason as Ralph Kramden from "The Honeymooners." According to Oliver Stone in the audio commentary, that statue actually exists.
Question: How did McLoughlin's team not see the second plane hit the South Tower? The South Tower is still intact when they first arrive at the WTC. Surely in the time it would take to organize a team to drive down to the complex and enter, the plane would've struck.
