Life as a House

Revealing mistake: When Sam tries to preform auto-erotic asphyxiation (when he tries to "hang" himself) on himself in the closet and the rod breaks the falling pieces are cleanly cut and not broken. (00:03:45)

Revealing mistake: When Josh calls Sam on his cell phone you can see on the phone "No Service", right before he dials the 555 number.

Factual error: In the beginning of the film with Coleen after George gets up, also in several other "morning" shots, the sun is always shown near the horizon or reflecting off the ocean. On the west coast this would make this the evening.

Trivia: Hayden Christensen didn't like wearing the heavy makeup and jewelry required for this movie. He complained that he was made to dress as adults saw goth teenagers and not as they actually were, which is why his character is so overly made-up, especially toward the beginning.
