Continuity mistake: After Meredith Johnson is "turned down", she goes storming out of her office after Tom Sanders. She leans very far over the stair rail to yell at him. In the following shots, it alternates between Meredith standing nearly straight up and leaning way over so the camera could get a cleavage shot.
Disclosure (1994)
1 continuity mistake - chronological order
Directed by: Barry Levinson
Starring: Donald Sutherland, Michael Douglas, Demi Moore, Caroline Goodall
Visible crew/equipment: After Tom gets the email that warns him that "It's not over", a woman is reflected in the glass wall in the next shot.
Bob Garvin: The Chinese say, "May you live in interesting times." Well this has been the most interesting merger since my second marriage.
Question: The book explains Meredith changed Tom's specifications on the production line to try and impress CEO Ed Nichols by cutting costs. But why did she choose to do it on Tom's responsibility in the first place? Why not just change someone else's specifications? Did she despise Tom in some way or did she choose to change Tom's specifications because she knew she was incompetent, and thus chose him to blame in case she messed up?
