Riki-Oh: The Story of Ricky (1991)
Revealing mistake: When the elderly inmate is pushed over by the other prisoners, a wooden train he made falls out of his clothing. It can be noticed that the man is just holding the train in his hand whilst falling and drops it when he lands on the ground to make it appear as if it fell out of his clothing. He was not meant to be holding the train as it was not shown being held in his hand at any previous point. (00:07:25)

Visible crew/equipment: Just after the police bus pulls over inside the prison, the camera moves forwards towards the side of the bus towards the front whilst one of the guards goes to open the bus door. When the guard walks around the driver side just before reaching the door to open it for the prisoners, the reflection of the camera crew can be seen reflected on the side of the bus. (00:03:10)
