The top mistakes in The Family Stone http://www.moviemistakes.com/film5451 en Sat, 07 Nov 2009 06:55:29 +0000 105428 Everett's car is not one but at least three cars. The first time we see it, there are no stickers on Mer's side, but there are some on Everett's side. Later, there are stickers on Meredith's side only and later still stickers are on her side but have changed. 105431 In the bar scenes, the Dos Equis beer bottles change position pretty much after every shot. Sometimes there are three bottles in a row, then two, then three again. And when the bottle of nearly full beer gets tipped over, not only is there no spill, but no foam generated from the bottle being shaken the way it was. 100787 The movie is set to take place in Connecticut, however, a bus passing by is a New Jersey Transit bus showing that it was, in fact, filmed in New Jersey. 109659 For the first few minutes of the film (as all the children are arriving and getting situated) Diane Keaton's sweater that's tied around her shoulders disappears and reappears at least twice. It's a contiguous scene with different shots so there would be no reason or time for her to remove it and replace it. 119935 In final scenes of family viewing tree 1 year later: Amy is now wearing mother's black ring on right index finger and another silver ring on her right ring finger, seen when she places the ornament on the tree. When the shot moves to the embrace in the reflection of the picture, the mother's ring is now on Amy's left hand (index finger) and there is no visible silver ring on either hand.
