Dead Man Walking

Visible crew/equipment: When Sister Helen and Mr. Delacroix are speaking in his living room, as the camera is panning out in the living room at the conclusion of their discussion, a crew member wanders into the background outside the window and then quickly runs out.

Continuity mistake: When Sister Helen is being pulled over for speeding, in the view through the rear view mirror, the cop car behind her is driving on the left side of the road, with the police officer driving in the right front seat, on a straight road with a solid center line. In the next shot, both cars are on the right side of the road, with the police officer sitting in the left front seat, on a curvy road with a dashed center line.
