Visible crew/equipment: When Leon is brought to the scene from the hospital and escorted toward the barber shop across the street from the bank, Sonny shouts, "Hey, Leon! Over here!" In the next shot facing the crowd around Leon, the production crew's camera crane becomes visible in the window reflection at the right side of the screen, as it films this shot. (01:05:00)
Continuity mistake: In the exterior shot of Sal entering the bank, there is a car parked by the door. In the interior shot, the car is not visible behind Sal. This mistake is reversed half a minute later when Sonny enters the bank. There is no car in the exterior shot, but it can be seen in the interior one. (00:04:00)
Leon: I mean, how do they expect you to get uncrazy if you're asleep all the time?
Question: What would've happened if Sonny drove the limo himself, refused to tell the police where they were going, and told the police not to follow them? Also, if Sal had hostages sitting behind him as well, making it impossible for the police to get a clean shot? How could the police have stopped them, without getting any hostages killed?
