Combustion picture

Continuity mistake: Ari during the break from the party begins her seductive scheme; posing as a waitress at this guy's own engagement party, she approaches him while he is -for some reason - in the parking lot, makes him smoke a joint for the first time in front of his car, and kisses him - apparently all of this is super easy, barely an inconvenience. When she touches his face, she lowers her fingers from the chin at least 3 times in separate shots when she is whispering things to him. (00:11:50)

The Family picture

Continuity mistake: Michelle Pfeiffer's costume. First we see her toes being painted, drying with tissue between each of her toes. She gets up from the chair to take the peppers out of the oven, talking to Fred about being a writer. She then goes out the door across the street with socks on and Fred's slippers. She never put on any socks or pulled out the tissue.
