Movie Trivia/Goofs

 → View All
  • When Geismar checks Lena's file in the Records archive at Military Government headquarters, he discovers only a note in the folder saying the file has been "sent to Overcast." Operation Overcast was the U.S. Army's 1945 operation to bring German rocket scientists (such as Wernher Von Braun) and their families to America following the end of the war. (It was later re-named Operation Paperclip.)
  • Movie Goof (factual errors): Jeeps from WW2 were all manual transmission with a long gearshift lever. Tulley is seen driving a Jeep more than once after he has his right arm broken. That would have been impossible to do.
  • David Holmes (IV) composed a complete score which was rejected.
  • Movie Goof (factual errors): SPOILER: After the slug is removed from Tully, it's said to be a ".32". In fact, the Russian Nagant pistol used to kill him was 7.62 mm, which is much closer to .30 caliber than .32
