possible GOOF


IF the first part of the movie takes place in NEW YORK , then why do the firemen (hosing down the student protesters) wear jackets that say "LBFD", presumably Long Beach Fire Department....? i'm just asking the question....does anyone have the VHS cover ? is it ever stated that this takes place in NYC ?

reply

Hmm, that's interesting. But to answer your question, it never actually states (as far as I'm aware) that it ever takes place in New York City; but since Allen sets virtually all of his movies there, since he does not really like the world outside, it's a fair bet that it is meant to be New York.

So I'd say it's a goof.

It's entirely possible that Fielding and Nancy went to Long Beach for a protest...entirely possible...

Since Long Beach, NY is less than five miles from some parts of Queens, a borough of NYC, I'd say it's a non-issue.

I'm a native Angeleno. New York has a Long Beach too?

Native San Diegan here. I believe the main distinction of Long Beach, CA is that it's the biggest one. I had also heard of Long Beach, MS and Long Beach, WA. I found many more here:

And not only that -- it has the biggest Queen!

Yes, it certainly does. When I hear "Long Beach" I think of the one here, not the one by you.




I asked the doctor to take your picture so I can look at you from inside as well.

Fair enough, because that's the biggest one.

But yeah, this isn't a goof.
