Continuity mistake: When Claudia is being cross examined Dr. Morrison can be seen in the background with his pen in his hand and then his hands clasped, and then with his hands on his cheek throughout the entire scene as the camera angle changes.
Nuts (1987)
Directed by: Martin Ritt
Starring: Richard Dreyfuss, Karl Malden, Barbra Streisand, Maureen Stapleton
Continuity mistake: When Levinsky is cross examining Dr. Morrison the camera angles from the front show him with his arms and hands on the witness box, but all the shots from the back show them in a different position. Happens throughout the scene.
Revealing mistake: Barbara Streisand (institutionalized) is brought in wearing a hospital gown and house coat to meet with her lawyer Richard Dreyfuss for the first time. She props her feet up on the table and spreads her legs for Dreyfuss to get him to react (underwear-less). As the angle changes and Streisand stands up, you can see her panty-line through her house coat.
Dr. Herbert A. Morrison: Would you like a cup of coffee?
Claudia Draper: Not unless there's Thorazine in it.
Dr. Herbert A. Morrison: Sorry, only milk and sugar.
Claudia Draper: Pass.
Claudia Draper: I know women who marry men they despise so they can drive a Mercedes and spend summers in the Hamptons.
Claudia Draper: Now, you talk to me and pretend I'm sane, okay?
Aaron Levinsky: Okay.
Claudia Draper: And I'll do the same for you.
