Corrected entry: In the scene where Chuck and Penny drive to their new house, Chuck throws the 'For Sale' sign into the grass where it sticks in and wobbles. As the scene cuts back to itself repeatedly, the amount of wobble on the board changes. One minute it is slowing to a stop, the next minute it is wobbling fast again.
Confessions of a Dangerous Mind (2002)
1 corrected entry
Directed by: George Clooney
Starring: George Clooney, Julia Roberts, Drew Barrymore, Sam Rockwell
Factual error: Chuck and Penny are seen drinking Rolling Rock beer in clear glass bottles. But Rolling Rock beer has always come in green glass bottles.
Patricia: Insane asylums are filled with people who think they're Jesus or Satan. Very few have delusions of being a guy down the block who works for an insurance company.
Trivia: When Chuck and Penny are in her house getting to know each other, they talk religion. Penny asks Chuck what he is and he says he's Jewish. Penny asks him, 'Ashkenazi?' and he nods. Ashkenazi literally means 'German Jew' or a Jew of German descent. Today it means a European, Russian, or American-born Jew.
Question: What is going on with George Clooney during the scene on the diving board? Where did all the blood come from? Did he kill himself?
Answer: He was presumably shot by the double agent. Which is why he tells Barry 'It's up to you now.'

Correction: I've watched this scene and the sign does not wobble faster during the scene. The sign shakes a small bit but is almost not even noticeable. The small shake could be attributed to the wind as you can see the leaves on the tree shaking.
