Character mistake: At the football players funeral, the guy on the left is still breathing, despite being dead.
Heathers (1988)
1 character mistake
Directed by: Michael Lehmann
Starring: Christian Slater, Winona Ryder, Shannen Doherty, Lisanne Falk
Revealing mistake: When they show Heather Chandler in her casket in the funeral scene and everyone is praying, she's clearly breathing.
Heather Chandler: Well, fuck me gently with a chainsaw. Do I look like Mother Teresa?
Trivia: The kitchens used in Heather Chandler's and Heather Duke's houses are the same room, but with different lighting and camera angles.
Question: Based on the ending, when Veronica invites Marsha to hang out, I have the impression that she doesn't intend to confess her involvement in the fake "suicides." People will continue to think that Heather was depressed, and Kurt and Ram were secretly gay. Is there some reason, other than jail, for her to let everyone keep believing the lies?

Answer: People who were bullied by Heather, Kurt, and Ram might feel better because of the faked suicides: they believe that the bullies were actually struggling with issues. As one boy says, he now thinks that Heather quit dating him because she was dissatisfied with her own life, not because he wasn't good enough. In the locker rooms, a girl tells Veronica that she thought Heather was just a bitch, but "guess I was wrong."
