The outside scenes of the London Underground feature Liverpool St Station which is at the eastern edge of the City of London, with the signage digitally altered to make it appear to be Charing Cross.

Chicago L trains, in particular, 2200 series cars (recognizable by their blinker type doors), were made up to appear as R-train cars, complete with MTA New York City Subway decals and "Bay Ridge" on their destination boards, even though the shots of the buildings are those of Lexington Avenue - including the balcony bridge that connects parts of Hunter College - which are on the Upper East Side, which is serviced by the IRT Lexington Avenue Line (4, 5, and 6 trains).

Bruce comments to Lucius, "It makes backing out of the driveway easier."

Billy Wilder
s hero,
Erich von Stroheim
