Continuity mistake: In the scene where Jjaks and Freddie escape and are driving in the red car, she opens the bottle of champagne and takes a drink with her right hand then hands it to Jjaks with the same right hand, but when the camera cuts to Jjaks, she is handing it with her left hand.
Feeling Minnesota (1996)
Directed by: Steven Baigelman
Starring: Keanu Reeves, Cameron Diaz, Vincent D'Onofrio, Delroy Lindo
Continuity mistake: While Jjaks and Freddie are talking for the first time, at the wedding, the level of beer in Freddie's bottle rises and falls.
Continuity mistake: In the scene where Freddie and Jjaks are in the bathroom during the wedding, they are standing in front of the mirror talking and her dress keeps moving on and off her shoulders during the whole scene. (00:17:15)
Freddie: I dream of being in a Las Vegas hotel where all of the towels smell like Downy Fabric Softener.
Freddie: Time is like an orange. It's round. It repeats itself. Everything happens for a reason.
Question: What ever happens to the red car that Jjaks buys from the used car lot? He gets pulled over by the cop, and we never see the car again. Why wouldn't he go back to get the car to go to Las Vegas, instead of getting a ride from the bible salesman? After all, he bought it with cash, it's not like it was stolen or anything.

Chosen answer: Yes, it does just vanish. It is understandable that we don't see it for the 2 remaining days of the main plot of the film. The car is impounded somewhere and Jjaks has a lot more to worry about than where the car is. He also has no money during those three days. A couple of possible explanations, excuses really : (1) the car was impounded by a private company, not the police, and Jjaks can't afford to get it back. (2) He did get it back. The Las Vegas scene happens 'several months later' and in that time Jjaks lost or sold the car.
