Shampoo (1975)

6 audio problems - chronological order

(2 votes)

Audio problem: When George starts to chase Jill he has a huge mouthful of apple, but in the next two shots he's cackling and smiling, with there being no time for him to have chewed and swallowed. Also, although he cackles when he runs, his lips do not move at all, as it was obviously dubbed later. (00:07:20)

Super Grover

Audio problem: At the party, when Jill and Johnny Pope are talking on the tennis court, after she asks, "When do you go to Egypt?" the audio we hear does not match his mouth movements at all. (01:22:20)

Super Grover

Audio problem: When the cleaners pull up in front of Jackie's home, we hear the audio of the two dogs barking and yelping, but the dogs are in full view and they are both lying down quietly, not moving at all. (01:41:40)

Super Grover

Continuity mistake: George's collar on his leather jacket is sometimes up, down or somewhere in between, in successive shots within a particular scene, depending on the camera angle. Additionally, his long neck scarf changes position numerous times, in shots following one another within the same scene too. One example is in the salon with Felicia and Jill. (00:18:20)
