Factual error: In the big professional Latin dance championship scene at the end of the movie, the competitors perform four dances: the samba, the cha-cha, the paso doble, and the rumba. In reality, however, a professional Latin dance championship, regardless of where you go, is almost always a 5-dance event: a cha-cha, a samba, a rumba, a paso doble, and a jive. Rumor has it that a jive sequence was originally supposed to be part of the competition scene but was cut from the final version of the film for unknown reasons.
Factual error: Mardi (Tuesday), le 17 Fevrier 1997 is displayed on the museum wall with the Tresors de China... that date is incorrect as it should have been lundi (Monday)... February 17, 1997 was the 8th Monday of that year. It was also the 48th day and 2nd month of 1997 in the Georgian calendar. The next time you can reuse 1997 calendar will be in 2025. Both calendars will be exactly the same. Feb 17, 1997.
