20th Century Women

Continuity mistake: Mother and son run towards the store window as the Ford Galaxy is burning in the parking lot. At the end of the shot from behind, a woman with a lilac top and long brown hair comes into frame and leans against the vegetable stand. After the cut, with Jamie and the mom by the window, the same woman walks in again. (00:01:30)

Continuity mistake: When the Ford Galaxy burns in the parking lot shots, it does not have scorch marks on the car doors. The shot from inside the store, behind Jamie and Dorothea, shows the car with heavier damage and marks under both the front and backseat window. (00:01:30)

Character mistake: Jamie says about his dad "Last time I felt close to him was on my birthday in 1974. He bought me mirrored sunglasses. I saw the President fall down the stairs, and I threw up on the carpet." The footage they are showing on TV is from Gerald Ford's infamous fall from the Air Force One which happened in June 1975.

Dorothea: Wondering if you're happy is a great shortcut to just being depressed.

Dorothea: Men always feel that they have to fix things for women, but they're not doing anything. Some things just can't be fixed. Just be there, somehow that's hard for all of you.

Julie: Half the time I regret it.
Jamie: Then why do you do it?
Julie: Because half the time I don't regret it.
