Visible crew/equipment: In the opening scene Dakota slides down the bell rope and the shot changes to the interior of the bell. Visible wires come out of the clanger to either side. (00:05:35)
The 51st State (2001)
1 visible crew/equipment mistake
Directed by: Ronny Yu
Starring: Samuel L. Jackson, Emily Mortimer, Robert Carlyle, Meat Loaf, Nigel Whitmey, Robert Jezek
Revealing mistake: In the "Mexican Standoff" between Felix's Jaguar and the Police Car (a Vauxhall Omega) both cars pass the same three parked cars in shot after shot after shot This because the alley the scene was filmed in is not as long as the movie makes it appear - so they repeated the shots of the Jaguar and the Police Car passing the same parked cars several times. (00:36:35)
Detective Virgil Kane: Seven shades of shit in a one shit trumpet, sir.
