Audio problem: When the movie ends and Fran is waiting for Jeff listen to the laughs in the background: "oooooah (laughs) ooh (laughs)." This exact same track repeats itself three times in a row, revealing it's a short clip played in a loop.
The Apartment (1960)
1 audio problem
Directed by: Billy Wilder
Starring: Shirley MacLaine, Jack Lemmon, Fred MacMurray, Ray Walston
Factual error: At the end of the scene where CC Baxter meets the doctor for the first time in the hall, Baxter is standing in the doorway of his apartment as the doctor enters his own apartment. From that view, you can see into Baxter's kitchen, which has a window - right where the apartment the doctor just entered is located. That could not be an outside wall.
Fran Kubelik: When you're in love with a married man, you shouldn't wear mascara.
Trivia: The last black and white movie to win the Best Picture Oscar, until The Artist in 2011.
