Corrected entry: In the scene where Rob Lowe takes his wife into the bar, the bow in the scarf tied round her head is on one side of her head in one shot and on the other side in the next shot.
St. Elmo's Fire (1985)
1 corrected entry
Directed by: Joel Schumacher
Starring: Demi Moore, Rob Lowe, Andrew McCarthy, Judd Nelson, Ally Sheedy
Continuity mistake: In the bar scene when Billy is playing the saxophone on stage, his wife enters the bar with her boyfriend. The saxophone music keeps playing after Billy starts glaring at them, even though Billy has stopped blowing air into the horn and is not pushing the horn's buttons.
Trivia: Mare Winningham, whose storyline revolves around the fact that she's a virgin, was pregnant throughout the filming of the movie. This is the reason she's wearing those baggy clothes.

Correction: Billy (Rob Lowe) never takes his wife to the bar. She brings a date to the bar (Whip Hubley), while he is performing with his band. Her black headband is knotted on her left side of her hair, and remains that way throughout the bar scene and during the fight scene outside the bar.
