1 other mistake - chronological order
Directed by: Paul Flaherty
Starring: John Candy, Jeffrey Jones, Annie Potts, Tim Thomerson
Visible crew/equipment: In the scene where Harry Crumb can hear Elliot Drasion in the room tidying up, you can see a microphone at the very top of the screen.
Helen Downing: Back then, dinner and a movie might have gotten you into some girl's panties, but it's gonna take a lot more than that to get into mine.
Question: When Harry finds Eliot tied up, he removes the tape and tells him that the kidnappers have been caught. Why did Eliot confess to being the actual mastermind behind the kidnapping? Harry had no idea it was Eliot behind it all so he could have gotten away with it if he didn't say anything.
