Visible crew/equipment: During the scene when Meryl Streep takes the option, if you pay attention to the effects in the vial you see the top part of a man flash in and out as the lightning effect is happening.
Death Becomes Her (1992)
1 visible crew/equipment mistake - chronological order
Directed by: Robert Zemeckis
Starring: Bruce Willis, Meryl Streep, Goldie Hawn, Isabella Rossellini
Continuity mistake: When Hellen kisses Madeleine at the party, the lip-mark is further to the right than it should have been, taken from the position of Hellen's head during the kiss.
Madeleine: Do you know that they do to soft, bald, overweight Republicans in prison, Ernest?
Question: In the scene where Goldie Hawn nearly gets her head run over by the car, how do they get that effect? It just looks far too dangerous to be an actual stunt, but it looks too real to be a bluescreen / split screen effect either.

Chosen answer: It is a composite shot, with the actor's head added to the scene. They just did a particularly good job on the scene.
