Directed by: Curtis Hanson
Starring: Julianne Moore, Ernie Hudson, Rebecca De Mornay, Annabella Sciorra, Matt McCoy
Plot hole: The only reason the movie takes place is because the news station that Mrs. Mott watches names Claire as the woman who filled the lawsuit against Mr. Mott. It is completely illegal for broadcasters to name or show a picture of a sexually assaulted victim.
Plot hole: When Peyton is raging in the bathroom, she's making an extreme racket yet no-one hears a thing.
Factual error: When Marlene goes to the greenhouse and is killed by the falling glass, this would never have happened. It is a federal law that all greenhouses, skylights, and entry-ways are to be made of safety glass. The glass would have to have been made of either a Tempered glass, which breaks in a thousand pieces, like a car window, or Laminated glass, which cracks but does not fall apart, like a car windshield. Neither one of these glasses would have killed her. Surely, law abiding citizens like Clare and her Husband would have followed the zoning laws that came along with building their greenhouse.
Peyton Flanders: When your husband makes love to you, it's my face he sees.
Question: How did Peyton get back in the house at the end without keys?
Answer: She probably had another key made.
Answer: The same way any common criminal gets in to a house, she "broke" in by either kicking the door, or smashing a window, etc. A locked door is not that hard an obstacle to overcome.
