Mistakes

When Annie and Paul are having dinner together, Paul pours her a glass of wine. As he is doing so, a few drops spill on the cloth covering the table. The camera then cuts to Annie. As it cuts back to Paul, the few drops of spilt wine are gone. Later, they come back. See more...

Trivia

There was a scene filmed in which Annie Wilkes runs over a younger police officer with a lawnmower, but it was cut because the director thought audiences would laugh at it. See more...

Corrections

When Paul is looking through Annie's album, there is an article on her as a nurse. The headline has her name as Annie M. Wilkes. But, in the accompanying photo her name is listed as Annie C. Wilkes. [Newspapers make mistakes all the time. A clipping with an error in it adds to authenticity.]

Annie tells Paul that she got the typewriter cheap because the M is missing. However he then writes "smudge" on a piece of paper and the m is in the word. [She tells him it is missing an "N". That is why in a later scene the word "and" is spelled "a d".]

A shotgun does not tear a large hole right through the body of a man - like when Annies shoots the sheriff. Not even at close range. [The wound doesn't go through his whole body; they only show the wound when he falls foward and when they do show it, it's on his back.]
