Visible crew/equipment: In the scene at the motel where Matthew says to his mom (Erin Brockovich) "I'll bring you back some breakfast", look at the TV next to the door. You can see one of the film crew holding the boom microphone. (01:50:28)
Erin Brockovich (2000)
1 visible crew/equipment mistake
Directed by: Steven Soderbergh
Starring: Julia Roberts, Albert Finney, David Brisbin, Dawn Didawick
Continuity mistake: When Ed is taking his tie off after the meeting with the PG&E clerk, he loosens it, then they cut to Erin, then back to Ed, and his tie is back to tight around his neck, and he's taking something out of his breast pocket. Then they cut back, and his tie is off. (00:52:42)
George: What's the matter? You got so many friends, you don't need one more?
Trivia: In the diner when you see the real Erin Brockovich (the waitress), you can also see the real Ed Masry. He is sitting directly behind Julia Roberts and her baby. Another side note, look at the real Erin Brockovich's name-badge, it says Julia. (00:10:05)
Question: Was the real Erin Brockovich as flirty and outspoken as Roberts portrayed? I'm sure I read somewhere she said the wardrobe was a bit of an exaggeration.
