Continuity mistake: When Barton is talking to the film maker about writing the film the film maker has on a military uniform. As the scenes go back and forth between him and Barton the military ribbons come undone on one side and then miraculously return to normal.
Barton Fink (1991)
Ending / spoiler
Directed by: Joel Coen, Ethan Coen
Starring: John Goodman, John Turturro, Judy Davis, Michael Lerner
Barton Fink's screenplay gets thrown out by Lipnick, but he keeps him under contract to teach him a lesson. Mundt is the devil, and the hotel is hell. He's a mass murderer, and gives Barton a head in a box. It ends with Barton at the sea and looking at a woman, who's actually the woman from the picture.
