Down With Love

Revealing mistake: Toward the end of the film when Catch has been left on his own by Barbara, and it begins raining heavily, he doesn't look like he is getting very wet. As the shot pans out, you can see on the street, that the rain is falling everywhere except for a perfect square around Catch, due to an off-shot prop.

Factual error: David Hyde Pierce mentions the Cuban Missile Crisis, which took place in October 1962. The time of year in the movie isn't entirely clear, but given the weather conditions it's almost certainly spring or summer, or several months before the Cuban Missile Crisis.
