Deliberate mistake: At the very end when they are all running to get the car started, the boy is the last to hop in. In the first scene, he is well along side the car, but in the very next shot he is farther again. In the last shot, he is closer to the door and finally gets in.
Little Miss Sunshine (2006)
1 deliberate mistake - chronological order
Directed by: Jonathan Dayton, Valerie Faris
Starring: Steve Carell, Toni Collette, Alan Arkin, Greg Kinnear, Abigail Breslin, Paul Dano
Factual error: The family passes an exit for Carefree Highway. This is an exit off I-17 a few miles North of Phoenix. At that point they would be about 10 miles from Scottsdale. Yet they drive all day and that night they are still within scooter range from Scottsdale.
Olive: Do you think there's a Heaven?
Frank: Well, it's hard to say, Olive. I don't think anyone knows for sure.
Olive: I know, but what do you think?
Frank: Well... um... uh.
Olive: I think there is.
Frank: Think I'll get in?
Olive: Yeah.
Frank: Promise?
Olive: Yeah.
Trivia: Before he was cast as Frank, Steve Carell was relatively unknown in Hollywood. But by the time the film was released, he had shot to stardom in both The 40 Year Old Virgin and "The Office".
