Directed by: Amy Heckerling
Starring: Chevy Chase, Beverly D'Angelo, Dana Hill, Jason Lively
Revealing mistake: During the scene when Audrey is having a nightmare about eating too much while on vacation, the nightmare ends with her inflating like a balloon from all the food. Her blouse splits open and down the middle, where the buttons have broken, the dark balloon used for the effect is visible. (00:16:35)
Continuity mistake: In the Italy scene after the visit to the Traveler's Cheque center, the Griswold's decide to go shopping with the $3000 they received. Rusty proclaims "Yeah Dad, we've been in these clothes a long time, I feel rank." Shortly after walking out of the store wearing their new clothes it changes to the scene right before they see Ellen on the billboard, and they are back in their old rank clothes.
Clark Griswold: There's Buckingham Palace, kids. That's where the Queen lives and works.
Audrey Griswold: Works? What does she do, Dad?
Clark Griswold: She queens... and vacuums.
Trivia: The bike rider who is hit by Clark in the car says the line "it's just a flesh wound." The rider is played by Eric Idle who co-wrote "Monty Python and the Holy Grail", where the Black Knight says "it's just a flesh wound."
Question: What was up with the kissing of Kent Winkdale (the host) in the game show "Pig in a poke"?

Answer: Kent was a parody of Richard Dawson and other classic game show hosts; Richard Dawson was well known (and somewhat notorious) for kissing all female contestants when he hosted "Family Feud" in the 1970s and 1980s.
