Visible crew/equipment: Half-way through the movie, in Max's and Maria's first kiss scene at night outdoors, 3 separate lighting goofs happen: A crew's spotlight is seen projecting from high in the trees on the left, then is quickly withdrawn. In a following shot, its beam reappears brightly spotlighting 'the worm.' Finally, when they're ready to embrace on the ground in very low light, the same pesky bright light jolts on, beaming right on them as they clinch. (00:55:00 - 01:05:00)
Grumpier Old Men (1995)
1 visible crew/equipment mistake
Directed by: Howard Deutch
Starring: Walter Matthau, Daryl Hannah, Jack Lemmon, Kevin Pollak, Ann-Margret, Sophia Loren
Continuity mistake: In a scene where Maria and Max are talking inside the restaurant, right before they are about to leave, the shot changes from her having her purse on her shoulder, to it not being there.
Max Goldman: If my dog was as ugly as you, I'd shave his ass and teach him to walk backwards.
Trivia: Ann Morgan Guilbert plays Mama Ragetti, the mother of Maria Sophia Coletta Ragetti (Sophia Loren). In real life, Guilbert is only six years older than Loren.
