Continuity mistake: When the young Edward Bloom is in church and is growing at a quick pace, you see his buttons fly off and hit the woman in front of him in the back of the head. She then turns around and his buttons are back. (00:19:25)
Big Fish (2003)
Plot summary
Directed by: Tim Burton
Starring: Ewan McGregor, Helena Bonham Carter, Jessica Lange, Billy Crudup, Albert Finney
Will Bloom is faced with the issue that his father, Edward Bloom, whom he never had a great relationship with, is dying. In the time his father has left, Will wants to find out about his father's real past, which he doesn't really know because his father always told him elaborate, bizarre, and unbelieveable stories about his life.

Senior Ed Bloom: I've been nothin' but myself since the day I was born, and if you can't see that it's your failin', not mine.
Trivia: If you look at the line with all the shoes on it, third from the left is a pair of ruby slippers.
Question: The end credits say that BLUE'S CLUES and DORA THE EXPLORER are referenced and the "References" in the movie's IMDb page say that Edward was watching them on TV, but when did he? I don't see clips of either show.
