The Wood

Movie (1999)

In the panicky, uncertain hours before his wedding, a groom with prenuptial jitters and his two best friends reminisce about growing up together in the middle-class African-American neighborhood of Inglewood, California. Flashing back to the twenty-something trio's childhood exploits, the memories capture the mood and nostalgia of the '80s era.

Movie Goof (continuity error): As the police are pulling them over, Stacey has ditched his red gang bandana in the master shot, but it reappears in an over-the-shoulder shot into the back seat.
Movie Goof (errors in geography): St. Bernard High School is actually located in Los Angeles, Playa Del Ray, California not Inglewood.
In a recent visit to USC, his alma mater, Rick Famuyiwa revealed that Paramount executives wanted the character of Mike to pinch Alicia's buttocks in the end scene for added laughs. Needless to say, Famuyiwa balked at this and never shot this. The opening Steadicam shot took almost an entire day to shoot.
Movie Goof (continuity error): When Mike is helping escort Roland from Tanya's apartment he is also holding a coffee mug. When he turns around to say something to Tanya he's all of a sudden holding the coffee pot instead.
