American Gangster (2007)

Corrected entry: Towards the end of the movie, Russell Crowe is looking through binoculars at the shipment of heroin being moved into white vans. In reality he's looking through a gridded wire fence, however in the movie the fence isn't seen as the camera pans across (as the view represents what is seen though the binoculars).

Correction: When you're that close to a fence, using binoculars, you don't see the chain links that close as anything more than a blur at most, and when panning the binoculars, the links won't impair the focus much. I took a photo through a screened window once, and you don't see the mesh in the photo because the lens was so close to it, the focal point was forced onto the object further away.
