Deliberate mistake: Right after Stevie and Marla attempt sex in his snowplow, the camera cuts to Marla buttoning up 3 buttons on her sweater which takes less than 8 seconds. However, in that same amount of time, making little or no sound to support his actions, Stevie manages to put on his shirt, zip up his pants, pull back up his coveralls, re-Velcro them closed perfectly all the way up to his chest, pull up and reposition the suspenders to the coveralls and be sitting calmly with both hands on his thighs when the camera cuts back to him. In less than 8 seconds, all silently and not moving the cab to the snowplow at all, no way. (00:32:20)
Mystery, Alaska (1999)
1 deliberate mistake - chronological order
Directed by: Jay Roach
Starring: Russell Crowe, Burt Reynolds, Hank Azaria, Mary McCormack
Continuity mistake: When Russell Crowe first pulls in front of Hank Azaria his car's quite angled on the road as he gets out. When we see a wide shot after they finish talking, the car's now much straighter without anyone having gone near it.
Donnie Shulzhoffer: Hey, you know where a guy can get a rub and a tug around here?
