Continuity mistake: At the reception, when Gwen holds the platter she starts to eat from it using her mouth to pick up the food, while Jasper is talking to her. In the next shot, while she's still picking up the food with her mouth, Jasper is now chewing a mouthful of food, but he didn't put anything in his mouth. (00:05:20)

Super Grover

Continuity mistake: On the sign that Gwen wears, 'Confront me if...', the letters have different print in shots, even within successive scenes, when it's supposed to be the same sign around her neck. (00:53:00 - 00:56:55)

Super Grover

Continuity mistake: The scar that Gwen has on her forehead changes its shape and/or its position in different close-up shots throughout the film. (00:16:40)

Super Grover

Continuity mistake: In the wedding reception, when Gwen and Jasper are drunk and dancing, they begin spinning in circles while holding hands. In most of the shots Gwen is holding onto the bow from the back of her dress. But in one shot, shortly before she falls into the cake, it magically appears on the back of her dress again. (00:06:20)

Continuity mistake: Gwen kisses Jasper and says, "Bye, Jasper." before she turns around the collar of her sweater is straight and aligned. In the next shot of her turning around, one collar end is folded under the sweater. (01:38:20)

Super Grover

Continuity mistake: When Gwen and Eddie both reach for the remote in the lounge, in the first shot he picks it up, has it in his hand and she's trying to pry it out of his hand, but in the next shot the remote is still on the box of baseballs and she gets it first. The books on the coffee table differ between these shots too. (00:58:45)

Super Grover

Continuity mistake: When Gwen and Jasper sit in the boat on the lake, her sunglasses and bread change positions in the close-up facing Gwen and close-up facing Jasper and the wide shot. In other shots facing Jasper and facing Gwen, their hand positions differ and the blue thermos handle changes position too. (00:46:00)

Super Grover

Other mistake: More than halfway through the film, after Gwen's room-mate has died of an overdose, she rings her sister on a phone that is not only "Emergencies Only", but it has no numbers on it. So how did she dial out?

Continuity mistake: When Gwen pulls a chair out for Andrea she's holding a cup and the script, and in the back shot the paper isn't folded. Yet in the front shot, it's folded in half. When Andrea sits, in the back shot she holds the sock monkey in her right hand, but in the front shot it's in her left hand. (01:17:35)

Super Grover

Continuity mistake: Near the end of the movie, when Gwen gets into the cab to go home, she throws her bags into the car and gets in on the left side of the car. The next shot shows her sitting on the right side where the bags were. (01:32:00)

Continuity mistake: While performing in Santa Booze, Bobbie Jean's hair at her shoulders, her black eyeglasses necklace and her neckline change throughout. Also, while Gwen and Gerhardt are performing, the bottom light on the floor lamp behind them changes positions in the close-ups and wide shots. (01:19:05)

Super Grover

Continuity mistake: When Gwen first finds Andrea, the shoe lace is on the floor with the hypodermic next to it, but in the close-up the needle's direction differs. Also, the sock monkey with its stuffing pulled out and the rest of the things are on the toilet. These things differ in their position in the few shots of the toilet. (01:24:35)

Super Grover

Continuity mistake: In the scene in which Gwen is re-enacting the soap opera for Andrea, she has gold dangly things in her hair. Notice in different shots the number on either side increases and decreases. (01:18:20)

Gwen Cummings: Yeah, I know I drink a lot, I know I do because I'm a writer and that's what I do, I drink. I'm not like those people out there, I can control myself! I can, if - that - if I wanted to, I could, if I wanted. I can! I can.

Trivia: On the first day, Dominic West (Jasper) was asked by the script supervisor, "Are you an alcoholic?" Well, Dominic thought to himself, "Crikey," then he felt incredibly self conscious, and so he replied, "Yeah, probably." Then the script supervisor said, "No, no! I meant your character."
