Rain Man (1988)

2 plot holes - chronological order

★★★★☆

Starring: Tom Cruise, Dustin Hoffman, Valeria Golino, Gerald R. Molen

Genres: Drama

Plot hole: Raymond's rigidly set routines force him to watch the TV shows "People's Court" and "Jeopardy" at the same times every day. Traveling on the road, however, this would be almost completely impossible, since the two shows aired in syndication. Not all cities aired them at the same times.

Plot hole: Raymond starts the toaster oven. 30 seconds later it starts smoking enough to set off the alarm. It takes longer than 30 seconds to heat up and there's nothing in it so why is it smoking?

Trivia

Trivia: When this movie gave a test screening, it got terrible reactions from the audience, mostly because of the ending and the public's lack of understanding of Autism. One test audience member even went so far to say that he was mad Raymond didn't "snap out of it" at the end.

Questions

Question: When Ray and Charlie are in the bathroom, they sing part of a song. What is the song they sing?

Answer: It's "I Saw Her Standing There," written by John Lennon and Paul McCartney, released November 1963. In addition to the Beatles, the song has been covered by Elton John, The Grateful Dead, Tiffany, and many others I'm sure.

Matty Blast

In December 1963, Capitol Records released the song in the United States as the B-side on the label's first single by the Beatles, "I Want to Hold Your Hand."
