Visible crew/equipment: When George goes to the East Coast (to send more drugs) in a motor home, you can see the camera crew members through the reflection of the windshield.
Blow (2001)
1 visible crew/equipment mistake - chronological order
Directed by: Ted Demme
Starring: Johnny Depp, Ray Liotta, Penélope Cruz, Franka Potente, Ethan Suplee, Paul Reubens, Rachel Griffiths, Jordi Mollà
Continuity mistake: In the scene where George is in California measuring the purity of the cocaine there is a topless woman with a blue bikini bottom in the background. The trouble is in the first shot she walks from right to left and sits down and then in the second shot she again walks from right to left and proceeds to sit in a different chair. This all happens within the span of a few seconds.
George: 15 kilos of cocaine? That's nothing. I piss 15 kilos.
Trivia: George Jung's daughter, Kristina, had a bit part as a clerk but her scene was cut.
Question: Considering how small her role was (in relation to the film's running time), why did Penelope Cruz earn second billing behind Johnny Depp?

Chosen answer: A star's screen time does not equate to what position they are billed at on a film. It generally relates to the selling power of their name. The film's main star would obviously be Depp. Cruz however would still be higher than people like Liotta, Reubens, etc. as her name is more known. It also helps with selling the film to audiences than just a one actor film.
