Overboard (1987)
1 factual error
Directed by: Garry Marshall
Starring: Edward Herrmann, Goldie Hawn, Katherine Helmond, Kurt Russell
Factual error: This story takes place in Oregon, but the Coast Guard cutter says "Point Evans" on the stern. This boat would be dispatched from Los Angeles, California.
Suggested correction: Point Evans is the ships actual name...below it you can see a fresh coat of white paint below it saying Elk Snout instead of its actual home port in Southern California.
Revealing mistake: When Goldie Hawn pushes Kurt Russell off the boat you can see he has flippers on in the water.
Annie: Oh, and give my regards to Schwartzman and Heineken.
Trivia: Director Garry Marshall appears in the film as the drummer in the band that's playing at the Fish Bowl, when Annie is looking for Dean.
