Sophie's Choice (1982)

Continuity mistake: When they are having the outdoor picnic celebration, Nathan gives Sophie a dress and a shoebox containing a pair of new shoes. When Sophie puts the shoes on it is obvious that the undersoles are stained and worn.

Stingo: I was twenty two, and a virgin, and was clasping in my arms at last the goddess of my unending fantasies. My lust was inexhaustible. Sophie's lust was both a plunge into carnal oblivion, and a flight from memory and grief. More than that, I now see it was a frantic attempt to beat back death.

Trivia: Meryl Streep could only bring herself to do one take of the choice scene, she begged the movie producers not to make her do it again.
