25th Hour (2002)

Continuity mistake: In the beginning of the movie where Monty is looking at his old school photo, look closely at his beard. In the next scene when he's in the classroom talking to 'his old friend' his beard has a completely different shape.

Uncle Nikolai: This is my advice to you: When you get there, figure it out who's who. Find the man nobody's protecting. A man without friends. And beat him until his eyes bleed. Let them think you are little bit crazy, but respectful, too. Respectful of the right men.

Trivia: In the scene where the DEA is searching the flat there is a cordless telephone from Bang & Olufsen (Beocom 6000), with the phone placed incorrectly on the base. The phone is located next to the stereo. The phone is placed with the keypad facing the camera and not away from it as it is supposed to. This is also indicated by the LED on the base which is red, indicating that the phone is not charging, the LED would have been green if the phone were placed correctly.

Question: Wasn't the plan that Monty's father thought about actually bad, at the end? I mean, even if Monty started a new life far from New York and his friends and family and never got recognized, his father would be arrested when coming back to New York. Suddenly him and his father disappear and later on his father gets back to New York, a little bit suspect no?
