Continuity mistake: In the strip club scene, three drinks are ordered by the characters. Later when the waitress comes to put them down, she puts down the second drink at one end of the table and in the next shot Matthew is already touching the glass on the other side of the table. Afterwards, the number and position of the glasses changes frequently between shots.
The Girl Next Door (2004)
Ending / spoiler
Directed by: Luke Greenfield
Starring: Timothy Olyphant, Emile Hirsch, James Remar, Elisha Cuthbert, Nicholas Downs
Everyone ends up very rich by creating a sex ed tape made with porn stars and high school grads. Elisha quits porn and settles down with the Kidman. Only a few chests bouncing around, but no real nekkidness, so not to worry.

Ferrari: I know I lost my virginity at prom. How about you? When did you lose your virginity?
April: When I was ten.
Ferrari: Okay, moving on.
Trivia: In the director's commentary, Luke Greenfield revealed that during the scene where Emile Hirsch is getting a lap dance in the strip club (the scene might have been removed in the theatrical version) they had to put about 4 pillows between Emile Hirsch and the stripper. This was due to the fact that Emile Hirsch was only 17 when the film was made and under child pornography laws he could not have a naked woman touch his body. (00:42:40)
Question: The parent-to-child mini-movie, was that a real film or was it specially made for this one?
