Corrected entry: Although the movies takes place in the late 50's, Eddie's Strat has a nice, shiny nylon strap. My dad was a professional bass player back then and he says that straps then were made from leather.
Eddie and the Cruisers (1983)
1 corrected entry
Directed by: Martin Davidson
Starring: Tom Berenger, Joe Pantoliano, Michael Pare, Matthew Laurance
Continuity mistake: When Eddie and Joann leave Satin Records they get in the car and there's a rear-view mirror on the windshield, but it vanishes while they're driving, and then it reappears.
Frank Ridgeway: Can I help you guys?
Sal Amato: Yeah, tell Tony Eddie and the Cruisers are here.
Question: The night that Eddie left the studio, why did Sal blame everything on Frank? If it hadn't been for Frank, they would have been stuck playing other people's songs for the rest of their lives. Because of Frank writing all of their songs, they got far enough to almost get a record deal.
