Trivia from Radio Days

• Did you know that the burglars scene from "Radio days" was inspired by a Spanish film for the 50s called "Historias de la radio" (Stories from the radio) directed by Alvaro Saenz de Heredia? (Carlos)
• Factual Errors: The burglars turn on a radio and instantly hear sound, when the vacuum tubes should have taken longer to warm up.
