Continuity mistake: In George's apartment, Joe takes a cigarette out of his mouth and sets it down, then places both empty hands on George's chest, then takes off his glasses, still with no cigarette in his mouth or hand. An instant later, the cigarette is back in his mouth and he again takes it out and sets it down. (01:16:15)

Joe Ross: You could call me Joe.
