Character mistake: When Marion is calculating how much she spent her math is wrong. The movie shows 400000 - 4036 = 395963. It should be 395964.
Psycho (1998)
1 character mistake - chronological order
Directed by: Gus Van Sant
Starring: Julianne Moore, Viggo Mortensen, Vince Vaughn, William H. Macy, Anne Heche
Visible crew/equipment: When Marion is dead, you can see the camera panning back reflected in her eyes.
Norman Bates: A boy's best friend is his mother.
Trivia: When Arbogast enters Norman's house and scans his surroundings there is a statue of an angel casting a shadow that resembles someone stabbing.
Question: About 15 minutes in why does the view in the rear view mirror show the police car and a semi being driven from the right-hand side and the police car pulling off the left side of the road? I think this is a double negative. This is not what you will see in a car mirror. (01:15:50)

Answer: What is shown is what you would see in the rearview mirror. Being in the mirror, it's a reverse image. Think about if you were looking at the cars pulled over head on/facing the driver, the road and the driver would be on your right. Shots in the mirror though shows the road and the driver on your left, the reverse.
