Deliberate mistake: When Hillary and CC are looking at Victoria after she's born, the baby Hillary's holding looks like it's several months old, not a red and pinched-looking newborn.
Beaches (1988)
1 deliberate mistake - chronological order
Directed by: Garry Marshall
Starring: Bette Midler, John Heard, Barbara Hershey, Spalding Gray
Continuity mistake: The scrub CC wears as she walks into the hospital room, as Hilary is in labour, keeps on changing position. It alternates from hanging off / being on her shoulder, without her touching it.
Trivia: Lainie Kazan plays Bette Midler's mother in the film, even though in real life she's only 5 years older than Midler.
Question: When Bette Midler and Barbara Hershey are at the laundromat, they are playing cards. All of a sudden the old man in the background starts laughing. Then Bette and Barbara start laughing? Is this a laugh fest?
Answer: The man laughs because he is mentally challenged, and Bette and Barbara just begin to laugh at him. A bit un-PC.
Answer: First of all, it was a woman. Second, she heard CC say that men never want to do laundry not even for their woman.
