Unfaithful

Factual error: After leaving Paul's apartment the first time Connie is shown running through Grand Central. She runs into a track tunnel, but the train's destination on the schedule board is displayed in blue, which indicates that the train is a Harlem line train (these headers are color-coded). However in the remainder of the film both Connie and Edward are shown getting off at a station next to the Hudson river which is served by the (of course) Hudson Line, which are displayed with green colored destinations on its schedule board. Long story short she's getting on the wrong train.

Factual error: Diane Lane makes a phone call from one of the stations in New York and only inserts a quarter. This film was shot after the charge for a public phone call was changed to 35 cents.

Factual error: The phone number Constance gives Paul has a 914 area code which is the Westchester County area code, a suburb just outside of NYC. In a later scene, we see Constance shopping at a supermarket presumably in her neighborhood as she is in the suburbs, but when she hastily decides to drive into NYC, she drives over an unknown bridge that would never take you from Westchester County to NYC.

Other mistake: The first time the cops come to the house, Connie and her son see them from the upstairs window, and start walking downstairs. It then cuts to the cops in the living room looking around, and Connie walks in and introduces herself. Her husband is not home, so did the cops just walk into in the house without knocking?

Tracy: Having an affair is nothing like taking a pottery class.
Sally: Could be.
Tracy: No. It would start out like that, and then, um, something would happen. Someone, uh, finds out, or someone falls in love, and it ends disastrously. It always ends disastrously.

Question: What is the significance (if any) of the symbol Paul drew on Connie's body?

Answer: There is no significance, the script just says it is a "little doodle".

Answer: If you remember it was a flower or a heart with an arrow pointing down. You can figure it out. I think it was just something Paul did for fun to Connie.

Answer: My only thought is for her husband to see the drawing.
