Directed by: David O. Russell
Starring: Christian Bale, Amy Adams, Bradley Cooper, Jennifer Lawrence
Corrected entry: When De Nero is asking the "Sheik" questions in Arabic, one of the FBI undercover guys rescues him by acting drunk and interrupting the meeting. At that point they whisk the Sheik away. In a following scene, he's still at the table.
Corrected entry: When Richie rings Irving at home, his wife answers, but Richie says his name is Robert.
Correction: "Robert Spencer" is his alias for this operation.
Factual error: In the scene where Irving goes to one of his dry cleaning locations and retrieves a gun and some money out of his safe, the money seen is quite obviously a more recent looking print with the spacing and look of a "large faced" bill, as opposed to money from that era with small faces on the bills.
Sydney Prosser: You're nothing to me, until you're everything.
Trivia: The events of the film are inspired by and loosely based on the real-life "Abscam" - an FBI sting operation during the late 1970's and early 1980's.

Correction: I have watched the scene twice now and there is no evidence of anyone leaving the table when the FBI guy interrupts.
