La Confidential (1997)

Corrected entry: When Bud is talking to Lynn about Susan Lefferts, Lynn says something to the effect that Susan "came on a bus with dreams of Hollywood, and this is how they turned out." But Bud later visits Susan Lefferts's mother, who lives in Elysian Park. That leaves three possibilities: One, Susan's mother originally lived somewhere other than Hollywood, and then moved there at some point. Two, Susan lived with someone other than her mother before coming to Hollywood. Three, the bus Lynn was referring to was a city bus - which would have travelled about six miles.

Correction: Lynn is using a cliché. "Arriving on the bus" is still used for hopeful actors arriving in Hollywood, and even for political hopefuls to some extent. The mayor even uses it, and Bud turns it around on him later.
