Trivia

The picture of Llewyn's musical partner on the duo's album cover is actually of guitarist Chris Eldridge, who appears on the film's soundtrack.

When Llewyn checks out his and Mike's record, "If We Had Wings" in the Gorfein's apartment in the beginning of the film, the bio underneath Mike Timlin's name is word-for-word that of Dave Van Ronk.

Share this

The character Troy Nelson is based on singer-songwriter Tom Paxton, who served in the army before beginning his career in Greenwich Village. Paxton's song "The Last Thing On My Mind" is featured in the film, and the Nelson character makes an implicit reference to another Paxton song "Buy a Gun For Your Son."

Goofs

There is a Lava Lamp shown in one scene. The Lava Lamp wasn't invented until 1963 and wasn't available for purchase until 1965.

Share this

Not only does the cover of the "Timlin and Davis" album shown near the beginning of the film recall the cover of "Inside Dave Van Ronk"; we can see that the liner notes are about Van Ronk.

During the scene in Washington Square park, the new stone benches that were added to the park in the recent renovation are clearly visible in the background.

Q

Who was the person who beat up llewyn?

A

It was Elizabeth (Betty) Hobby's husband. (She was the singer from Arkansas who Llewyn berated when he was drunk the previous night). The last thing he says as he walks out of the alley is My wife up there trying to sing.'
