When Ruby steals the car at night, she passes through the glass gate breaking it. Later on the film (the next day) we can see that the glass gate is intact. [Since we don't know how early or late Ruby wakes up, nor do we know what time Terry returns, it is possible that a man with his sort of connections and money-spending habits to have his glass gate fixed in less than a day. It also makes sense that he would get it fixed as soon as possible because he and his wife try to cover up everything unusual in their lives, in case there is someone watching or another unsuspected visit.]

The picture of the brakeline leaking is actually a fuel filter. The car would run out of gas. It would not have brake problems. See more...

Comments made in brackets are corrections from other visitors. As such, any aggressive/abusive corrections (and I get quite a few) written as if they're comments I've made myself will be ignored. To submit your own corrections for mistakes, just click the edit icon under an entry, then choose "correct entry". Some entries have "duplicated entry" after them - these are entries which were already listed on the main page, but were submitted again. I occasionally leave these online for a while, just in case they were moved in error, so don't worry about pointing them out to me.

They never do explain how a guy like Mr. Glass can survive a car crash, break a pair of handcuffs and climb at least 250 feet in the end of the movie. [First he was not handcuffed, but his hands were taped which could easily been torn apart during the crash. Furthermore why do some people survive a crash and the people right next to them not? It's just (bad) luck. And I believe he was so full of hate that this could keep him going.]
In the scene where Ruby drops the knife inside the garage after we have seen the Volvo's tyres are slashed, where was she hiding the knife previously? Just before this scene, she is seen clutching Rhett with both hands to keep him quiet and she had no pockets that would allow for a knife to fit in her PJ's. [Ruby told Rhett to wait there, while she left to cut the tires. She could have easily picked up a knife on her way to the garage.]
In the scene where the child services woman is checking the house she finds insulin in the medicine cabinet and Diane Lane explains that she had Type I diababetes. All insulin variants must be kept at 4 degrees because they degrade at room temerature. [We later learn that Diane Lane is a morphine addict, and that was morphine she was shooting up. She may have confiscated the insulin from her job as a cover and just put it there with the possibility that the child services lady would not know all that much about diabetes (which she didn't, obviously.)]
During the scene where the two guys come in and attack Terry for their money, they take him away in his Jaguar. When they leave the trunk is wide open, but the next time they show the car the trunk is shut. [It's the top going up on the convertible - when they leave, the top is going up and the next time they show the car the top is all the way up.]
