Continuity mistake: When Frankie leaves the restaurant to deal with the policewoman who is just writing a parking ticket it is raining and everyone on the sidewalk is carrying an umbrella, but when the camera angle changes there is not a single umbrella to be seen. And a moment later, after Angelo has been shot, even the sun is shining. (00:08:40)
