Other mistake: When Helena Bonham Carter removes the necklace from its case, the clasp of the necklace is obviously closed (or at least it should be-otherwise it would slip inside the case itself from the raised mount that it is kept on in the case when the case is being carried) ; she is carrying the top of the necklace (where the clasp is) in her left hand while her right hand carries the bottom of the necklace. Had the clasp been open in the case, her arm and hand motion when she picks it up with her fingers would not have been so smooth. She goes over to Anne Hathaway with the clasp obviously opened (because we see her put the necklace around Hathaway's neck rather than over Hathaway's head) and then she closes it. When she tries to open it a few minutes later the security guard informs her that she cannot open it; that it can only be opened with a special security magnet - which he then proceeds to use to unlock the clasp. In other words, the necklace would have needed to be opened by the security guard to begin with before Helen Bonham Carter could put it around Anne Hathaway's neck. (01:01:05)

Daphne Kluger is a famous actress who plans to wear the Touissant, a six pound diamond necklace worth for $150,000,000, to the Met Gala.

Her team includes Lou (her P.I.C), Nine Ball (a hacker), Rose Weil (a designer), Constance (a street hustler), Tammy (an equipment supplier) and Amita (a Jeweller).
Debbie Ocean: How long would it take you to make seven pieces of jewelry, if the stones were already cut?
Amita: Probably five or six hours.
Debbie Ocean: How long if I told you, you didn't have to live with your mother anymore?
Amita: Less.
Trivia: Sandra Bullock speaks German at the Met Gala - she's actually fluent in German, having lived in Germany and Austria for the first 12 years of her life. She gave an award speech in German once: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6BK1GlyGdm4.
