Firestarter (1984)
1 factual error
Directed by: Mark L. Lester
Starring: Drew Barrymore, George C. Scott, David Keith, Heather Locklear, Freddie Jones
Revealing mistake: When one car explodes, you can blatantly see the two men standing beside the car are in fact nothing but lifeless dummies. (00:39:45)
Captain Hollister: What's to stop me from having you erased right here and now?
John Rainbird: My word - that I've already made certain provisions that should I "disappear", The Shop will cease to exist within six weeks. And within six months, you will stand in front of a judge awaiting sentence for crimes serious enough to keep you behind bars for the rest of your life.
Question: At the end of the movie why does Charlie go to live with the older couple on the farm?
Answer: Charlie had nowhere else to go and trusted no-one. The Manders had previously taken in Charlie and her father, were kind, and, knowing the truth, did not exploit them and tried to protect them. Charlie needs a home and knows they will care for her.
