Corrected entry: The Basketball Diaries the book was written in the 1960s, when Jim Carroll was sixteen; however, the movie was set in the 1990s, making it look like Carroll was born in the 1980s.

Corrected entry: When Jim and Frankie Pinewater talk about the latter's story of going to a church to pay penance and end up doing heroin instead, as Frankie tells Jim about smelling the incest, he is looking down at him, but in the close up shot where he questions himself about the aroma of the incest, he is looking up and his hands are raised close to his head.
Correction: Um.smelling the incest? I'm hoping you mean incense?
