American Crime Story (2016)

Goofs

The Run of His Life

American Crime Story

Edit

Continuity

Every portion of the white Bronco chase is clearly filmed on the same short section of freeway, with the same road signs and buildings in the background.

Factual errors

The couple who notice O.J. on the highway are depicted as being enthusiastic. According to Jeffrey Toobin, they were actually scared and said that Al Cowlings gave them a look that was "like death."
When Christopher Darden is discussing the case with his neighbors, one neighbor remarks that O.J. attended Galileo High, clearly implying that means he's a local guy. O.J. did attend Galileo, but it's in San Francisco.
Incorrectly regarded as goofs: One of Chris Darden's parents' neighbors refers to O.J. Simpson as a local who attended Galileo High, which is in San Francisco, not Los Angeles. The scene, however, takes place in Richmond CA, just outside San Francisco.

Miscellaneous

When AC is shown driving during the low speed chase the steering column mounted gear shift selector is in Park. The Bronco was either on a trailer being towed or this is a process shot.

Anachronisms

The hippie couple who see O.J. on the highway have a DVD player clearly visible in the dashboard of their VW van; the DVD logo can be easily seen in a closeup. DVD was not commercially available in 1994, and wouldn't be available in cars for many years. Since they're listening to music, the device is presumably meant to be mistaken for a CD player.
During the chase, Pizza Hut is shown being very busy and and one of the workers asks "How are them chicken wings looking?" Chicken wings were not on the Pizza Hut menu until 1995, the year after the chase.
The phone that can be seen in the Pizza Hut scene is a Cisco Systems 7900 series IP phone. Although this episode takes place in 1994, the first Cisco IP phone would not become available until 1997 and the model seen in the Pizza Hut scene was not released until the mid-2000s.
Visible in the convenience store where multiple people learn that Simpson has become a fugitive are a shelf filled with Chobani yogurt, which was not sold until 2007, and an advertisement for Red Bull, which was not sold in the United States until 1997.
In the video-editing suite scene with Johnnie Cochran 22 minutes in, an HHB Circle 3 monitor loudspeaker with its characteristic purple woofer cone is seen next to the TV. The Circle 3 wasn't released until 1999, five years later.

Errors in geography

When the couple who spots the Bronco on the freeway calls in the information from the emergency phone, the man says "They're going north on the 5 right before it merges with the 405." In Orange County, the 5 merges with the 405 heading south; heading north, the 405 splits off from the 5.
