Revealing mistake: The ping-pong ball that Theo and Julian pass between their mouths is lit inconsistently with the lighting in the car. It also moves independently of the confines of the actors' mouths. The ball was digitally added after filming this scene. (00:26:10)

Theo (Clive Owen), Kee and the baby escape from the refugee camp that's turned into a war zone because of the Uprising. Marichka guides them to a row boat and they head to the Human Project boat (the Tomorrow). When they reach the buoy, the boat is nowhere in sight. Kee says that she'll name her baby daughter Dylan. Theo dies of a gunshot wound he received from Luke while escaping the refugee camp. Moments later, the Human Project boat appears and spots Kee and her baby in the row boat...

Kee: Dylan. I'll call my baby Dylan. It's a girl's name, too.
Trivia: When Theo goes to visit his cousin at his apartment at Battersea Power Station, an inflatable pig can be seen flying between the smokestacks, a recreation of and reference to the cover of the Pink Floyd album "Animals," whose vision of society the film mirrors.
Question: Was the birth scene real? It seemed completely real, and the woman appeared to actually be pregnant earlier in the film.
Chosen answer: No, it wasn't real. Good make-up and acting, that's all.
