The Crow: City of Angels

Factual error: Throughout the movie, we can hear Ash's motorcycle shift gears, but we can see that his hands never disengage the clutch, a must do for a smooth shift like we hear.

Visible crew/equipment: In the scene where Curve is running away from Ashe, and Ashe has jumped off the car and has gone to his Motorcycle, there is a crew member in black in the lower right hand corner that pushes Ashe's motorcycle so that it looked like he was taking off.

Continuity mistake: In the scene where Ashe is burying his son, when they show his face as he's piling up the dirt there are no black lines on his forehead, yet in the next scene when they show him on his motorcycle, the black lines are back on his forehead.

Trivia: The film as originally intended was longer and more violent, had a non-linear narrative and a much darker ending. The studio forced director Tim Pope to re-edit the film to follow a structure more akin to the first film in order to capitalize on its success and also made him delete a number of key scenes. This lead to he and writer David Goyer disowning the film. The original workprint of the film that represented Pope and Goyer's vision was well over two hours long, as compared to the theatrical cut's anemic 84 minute run-time.

Trivia: The original version of the script actually revolved around Sarah being killed and returning to life as a female "Crow."

Trivia: The first piece of graffiti Ashe runs past when he returns to his work shop says "Wings", kind of fitting given his resurrection was due to a Crow. Also Sarah has wings tattooed on her back.

Chosen answer: Because the whole coming back from the dead experience is strange, mysterious and scary for him. He had no idea who or what called him back. Is he the only one or was there a whole world of supernatural creatures.
