10 Movie Secrets That Were Hiding In Plain Sight

6. How Two Face Got In Marino's Car - The Dark Knight

The Dark Knight Two Face
Warner Bros.

The Dark Knight is a pretty grounded film, but it still features a handful of fantastical moments - usually involving the ridiculous plans of the supervillains - that you just have to go with. One which became a source of contention after release, however, was how Two Face managed to slip into Maroni's car unnoticed - which actually has a pretty obvious explanation.

If you watch the scene of Maroni and his men getting into the car again, you can actually see Dent take out one of his goons if you keep your eyes focused on the left side of the frame. Ingeniously, Christopher Nolan made sure that was the last place you were looking, not only by putting Maroni himself on the opposite end of the frame, but by moving the camera to the right to keep you following it.

Still, once you notice it it's hard to not see the move every single time, but that only makes it even more satisfying.
