Continuity mistake: When Basquiat is painting on a sign with a horse on it, he puts a white line through the horse. When Warhol has a look at it, the stripe no longer covers the horse.
Basquiat (1996)
Directed by: Julian Schnabel
Starring: Benicio Del Toro, Jeffrey Wright, Claire Forlani, Michael Wincott
Factual error: Although many thing have been changed to reflect the early-mid 80's when the film is set, it is often possible to see 90's cars in several scenes.
Factual error: Gina is drinking from a 90's Diet Pepsi can when she goes to Basquiat's studio for the meeting with Cynthia and Tom, and of course the film is set in the 80's.
Benny Dalmau: What would you do if I kissed ya?
Gina Cardinale: You're out of your mind Benny. You should take more drugs.
Basquiat: He says he's jealous of the moon, because you look at it. He's jealous of the sun, because it warms you. He says, "I feel you, even when I'm not feeling you. I talk to you when I'm not talking to you. I love you, even when I'm not loving you " you know I love you, Gina.
Basquiat: I gotta get out of New York.
Andy Warhol: Hey, we could go to Pittsburgh! I kinda grew up there. They have this room with all the world's famous statues in it, so you don't even have to go to Europe any more... just go to Pittsburgh.
