Revealing mistake: Forced perspective techniques are used to make Martin Short appear to be a ten-year old in the movie. This occasionally fails, most notably when Clifford gets out of Uncle Martin's car, and he is walking down the airport aisle. In these scenes, he appears to be six feet tall.
Clifford (1994)
1 revealing mistake
Directed by: Paul Flaherty
Starring: Martin Short, Mary Steenburgen, Charles Grodin, Dabney Coleman
Genres: Comedy
Plot hole: How does Clifford, a ten-year-old boy, manage to steal a stereo, a surfboard and a dog from the airport without being caught?
Clifford: You wouldn't lie to me, would you Uncle Martin? 'Cause if you did I'd be so angry I don't know what I'd do.
Question: I remember watching this movie a long time ago and seeing a scene where Clifford gets a walkman after pretending he's deaf and a scene where Clifford and Uncle Martin are out driving looking for "Sneakers", the dog Clifford stole from the airport. I watched this movie many times after that and have never seen these two scenes again. Does anyone know the whereabouts of these scenes or any other information about them?

Chosen answer: There were scenes that were edited into the television edition of the movie, but weren't included in the VHS or DVD edition, and this was one of them. Reference: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0109447/board/thread/49571041.
