Mistakes

In the scene where Harry and Erica are walking on the beach, Harry bends down and supposedly picks up a black rock to give to Erica. However, the viewer can see Harry take an object out from his left pocket and, while concealing it with his left hand, transfer it over to his right hand as he bends down and pretends to pick up the rock from the beach.

During the closing credits the song played is "La Vie en Rose" sang by Jack Nicholson. 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.

Entry In the scene where Diane Keaton is coming home from her date with Keanu Reeves she does not have panty hose on. However, when she came out to meet Keanu you see her with black panty hose on. When did she take them off? [Take a closer look. She does not have on black hose when she comes out to meet Keanu Reeves for the date. Her legs look bare.]
Entry On the way to the beach house, Harry stops the car for a moment. Maron tells him, "Make a right." The next shot shows the car moving from a stop, and turning left. [She tells him to take a right and then a left into the second driveway. It then cuts to him turning left into the driveway. You can tell it's the driveway because it's not paved. The cut is rather abrupt.]
Entry In the scene where Marin calls Diane to tell her about Marin's dad getting remarried; Diane comes into the house to answer the phone, and you hear the door slamming shut, but the door never closes. [If you watch closely, what you hear and see is the screen door slamming shut. The actual door never closes.]
Entry In the restaurant in Paris, when Jack Nicholson approaches Diane Keaton's table, there is no chair located opposite from where Diane is sitting. Jack then approaches the table and after saying his pleasantries, sits down without his asking for a chair or anyone bringing one over to him. [The chair is pushed in very close to the table, and hard to see from the side view. Look closely - it's there.]
Entry When Zoe unexpectedly brings Julian home from the farmer's market, it appears that Erica is already setting a table for three guests. Why? She didn't know Julian would be joining them. [If you look closer, you can see that the third table mat is sitting in the middle of the table and that she skips it when sitting down the utensils.]
Entry At roughly an hour and 10 minutes into the film when Harry and Erica first sleep together, Harry falls asleep on the left hand side and in the morning, when the alarm goes off, he is on the right. (The viewer's right and left.) [In the commentary director Nancy Meyers in the DVD she explains why they wake up on the opposite sides of the bed that they had been sleeping before. She wanted to let audiences know that there was more love making during the night.]
Entry Diane abruptly leaves a Manhattan restaurant, without her pocket book or purse, after spotting Nicholson with another woman, and hails a taxi. How was she going to pay for the ride? [She could have asked the taxi driver to keep the meter running while she went up to her hotel room to get some money.]
Entry At the beginning, Jack's girlfriend tells him to make a right, but he turns left. [She does tell him to make a right, and that it is the second house on the left. We don't see him make the right, but the left turn he makes leads right into the driveway. Perhaps a shot is missing, but technically, he followed the directions.]
Entry When Harry walks into the restaurant in Paris he has a beard. When he gets to the table where Erica is he is now clean-shaven. [When Harry gets into the elevator after leaving Marin, he has a beard. When he gets out of the elevator, he no longer has a beard because it's a different day - and he's in Paris.]
