Continuity mistake: Lloyd shut the bathroom door when he went in to start the shower (to make the water hot for Frances). When Eugene went to the motel room to get Frances out, a shot of the bathroom door showed it ajar (a few inches) with steam coming out. The door was closed when Lloyd came out of the bathroom. (00:44:20)

Continuity mistake: Eugene started the guitar competition wearing the "slide" (on his left hand), which Willie Brown previously told him he had to use if he wanted to play Blues. At one point during the competition, Eugene did not have the slide on but he was wearing it after he won. (01:27:10 - 01:31:42)

KeyZOid

Continuity mistake: The truck drove around the bend, past the Highway 61 sign, and stopped near the mailbox. After Eugene [Ralph Macchio] and Willie Brown got off the back of the truck, they were standing at/near the bend in the road, almost directly across from the North 61 highway sign. The bend in the road also looked much sharper. (00:30:05 - 00:30:42)

Plot hole: On Christmas morning, Karen went to the grocery store (open on Christmas!) where she donated $5,000 via credit card to the "Homeless Mother Shelter." Hours later, the $5,000 already showed up on Chris' laptop as deposited into the shelter's account. It takes days, not hours, for credit card transactions to be processed - especially if the transaction occurs on a holiday. (01:14:10 - 01:23:20)

KeyZOid

Trivia: After chasing the neighbor girl Nia from her hot cocoa stand, Karen said, "And your little dog, too" - equating Karen to the Wicked Witch in "The Wizard of Oz" who said the same to Dorothy regarding Toto. (00:02:15)

KeyZOid

Continuity mistake: The sky (sun versus clouds and color - blue, white, or gray) changes frequently during the few minutes when Lara is leaving the site until she returns to retrieve her bag. Before she falls into the hole, the sun is shown near the horizon, about to set, but the sun is shining on her in the hole. A setting sun would not be able to emit rays into a distant hole. (00:05:34 - 00:10:15)

KeyZOid

Plot hole: Tony said, "If Danny beat him [Kevin] any more, he would have never lived" and Kevin spent a month recovering in the hospital. Tony and Danny were "advised to take a plea" and agreed to 10-25 years in prison. When Kevin went to the correctional facility to "forgive them in person", Kevin said, "We never properly met. I was in the hospital during your trial." Guilty pleas do not result in a trial and a felony criminal case would not be resolved within 30 days of the commission of the crime. (00:44:50 - 00:49:06)

KeyZOid

Continuity mistake: Danny's car is shown going over the cliff twice - before and after Danny shoots himself. Right before going over the first time, Danny is shown with his right hand on the steering wheel but the second time with his right hand on the rifle (which is pointed toward his neck). (00:32:22)

KeyZOid

Character mistake: When Tony is talking to the Biancis and others, he refers to victim Kevin Turner as "Kevin Grant" at least two times. (00:44:50 - 00:46:27)

KeyZOid

Continuity mistake: When Private Connors told the driver to "pull over", there was a grassy hill and trees to the left of the truck, but after the driver got out of the truck, there was a cement wall to his left (with grass visible above it). (00:02:30)

Trivia: Greta handed Clinton (in bed) a mug and after he took a sip, Clinton asked, "What is this - just boiled whiskey?" Greta smiled and replied, "Yeah, pretty much." Greta most likely made Clinton a "Hot Toddy", which is a beverage typically comprised of whiskey (or brandy or rum), hot water, lemon juice, and honey. Hot toddy is used to help alleviate the symptoms of a cold/flu or served as a nightcap to help facilitate sleep (although it may actually interfere with getting quality sleep). (00:51:30)

KeyZOid

Continuity mistake: The amount of beer in Clinton's (and in Greta's) glass fluctuates. For example, Clinton's glass is almost full, but is even closer to the rim the second time it is shown. After the amount decreases (even though he isn't shown drinking any), the amount in his glass is fuller again. (00:45:20)

KeyZOid

Other mistake: The grave that Clinton dug for "Mouser" was not even close to the recommended minimum depth of 3'. After placing the box in the hole, the cat's remains would have been within about a foot of ground level, which was close enough for the cat's scent to attract animals which might/will dig up the grave. The roots of Mouser's favorite tree should have interfered with the ability of Clinton to dig there without obstructions. Also, some states or local ordinances prohibit backyard burials of pets. (00:24:28)

KeyZOid

Revealing mistake: When the newscaster was filming Clinton giving a statement, the timer on the camera stayed at 0:00. The red "Rec" button, which supposedly was on, also looked fake. (00:10:35)

KeyZOid

Deliberate mistake: Some clothes were interchangeable from one character to another (or within a character over time), despite their obvious differences in sizes/body frames. Hazel, as a much heavier senior citizen, was still able to wear her "lucky" carnation pink coat that fit her 58 years earlier when she was a skinny young lady. Hazel was also able to switch coats with Margot, who had a much thinner body. The coat on Margot even looked form-fitting afterwards. Kip's tuxedo did not look too large on Griffin. (00:45:20 - 00:49:50)

KeyZOid

Character mistake: The 911 operator told Margot, "He [intruder Griffin] sounds harmless to me" and Margot said, "Fine", ending the 911 call. The 911 operator should follow protocol for an intruder (especially since there was the possibility of a another intruder in the house), not make a subjective assessment of the situation based on the conversation between the resident and the intruder. (00:30:15)

KeyZOid

Continuity mistake: The way Margot's bag/purse was set on the bed (handles hanging over the foot) was different (near the center) when Margot leaned/fell backwards onto the bed. Also, when Margot jumped off the bed, the purse was back to being closer to the foot of the bed with the handles hanging somewhat over the side. (00:23:34 - 00:28:51)

KeyZOid

Revealing mistake: The "snow" that Kip and his friends jumped into after leaving the bath house was obviously fake (like the "snow" on the pine trees). Beads of "snow" do not fly into the air when impacted by a weighted object, such as a body. (00:22:32)

KeyZOid

Other mistake: The clock on the kitchen wall was at 5:03 PM when Donna asked, "Where the heck can they be?" After an outside scene and returning to the kitchen, the clock was still at 5:03 when Donna said she couldn't find her camera. The battery in the clock could have been dead, but the display time was what could be expected around dinnertime (suggesting the clock was supposed to be in working condition). The "non-advancing" clocks seem to be a common occurrence in movies. (00:10:20 - 00:11:18)

KeyZOid

Revealing mistake: The luminaries lining both sides of the driveway were not lit, although there were a few bags that contained a small circle of dim light that gave the impression of being lit. One of the bags was nonetheless able to catch Boyd's pants leg on fire. (00:11:42)
