Trivia: In Star Wars, the name Tosche Station was inspired by real-life San Francisco detective Dave Toschi, one of the lead investigators on the Zodiac Killer case. George Lucas, who lived in the Bay Area during the Zodiac murders, followed the case closely and admired Toschi's work. Feeling the detective was unfairly criticized, Lucas used his name for Luke Skywalker's local hangout as a subtle tribute. The name is often misspelled as "Tashi" or "Toshi."

Continuity mistake: When Robert Graysmith is speaking with Sherwood in Sherwood's garden, Robert has his arms crossed. The watch on Robert's left hand changes multiple times between shots. (01:58:25 - 01:59:05)
Robert Graysmith: It's ok... Avery has a gun.
Question: There is a scene in Robert Graysmith's kitchen where you can see a container of Old Bay Seasoning on the top of the stove. I am from Maryland and I found it unusual that they would have it out in California, especially before the internet came into being. Did I see that wrong? I couldn't find the answer anywhere else.
Answer: Old Bay seasoning has been available on the West Coast for many decades. I can remember my mother using it as far back as the 1960s. That was in Washington state.
