Factual error: In the culminating scene where Fletch is held at gun point and escapes by turning on the gas valve in the fireplace and then igniting the vapors into a ball of flame, he actually turns the valve into the off position (valve is perpendicular to the pipe). (01:32:00)

Upvote valid corrections to help move entries into the corrections section.

Suggested correction: The valve was in closed position (perpendicular). He opened the valve (turned parallel to pipe).
