Revealing mistake: When Kathy is ripping open the plastic bag tied around Behrani, watch closely and you can see Behrani's eyelids flutter, although he's dead. (01:54:40)
House of Sand and Fog (2003)
1 revealing mistake
Directed by: Vadim Perelman
Starring: Ben Kingsley, Jennifer Connelly, Frances Fisher, Ron Eldard
Genres: Drama
Continuity mistake: When Behrani puts the plastic bag on his head, to suffocate himself, we see shots of him breathing heavily. In one shot the bag has become very condensed with his breath, yet when we see him take his final breath, the bag is perfectly clear. (01:52:55 - 01:53:50)
Kathy: I miss my dad. He worked really hard for that house... It took him... thirty years to pay it off. And it took me eight months to fuck it up.
Question: One of the mistakes for this film is "In the scene when Ben Kingsley is called a traitor by the woman, at the far right of some shots, you can see the right side (viewer's left) of a man moving slightly." - can anyone make this more specific. Who is calling Ben Kingsley a traitor? His wife, or Jennifer Connoley. Could anyone supply a timecode for this, as I'd like to see it.

Chosen answer: I believe the post is refering to when Ben Kingsley's wife is yelling at him after the cop first threatens them with deportation. But his wife calls him a coward, not a traitor, and there is no one in the scene except for the 3 family members (I've gone through the scene several times in slow motion).
