Revealing mistake: Shelly Long and Bette Midler are running on the beach trying to get in the helicopter's light. In the far shot, when they are running out from under some structure, you can EASILY see that it is two men in drag. They are taller, a bit more "husky" and are having a hard time running in heels.
Outrageous Fortune (1987)
Ending / spoiler
Directed by: Arthur Hiller
Starring: Bette Midler, Peter Coyote, Shelley Long, Robert Prosky, George Carlin
After Lauren gets ahold of the toxin during the helicopter exchange, she and Sandy must flee to the Four Fingers mesas with Michael in pursuit. Lauren outruns Michael by jumping from finger to finger using the ballet leaps she was so good at in the beginning of the film. Michael keeps up until the last finger, when he jumps short and falls to his death. Lauren waves the vial of toxin over her head as Sandy claps and Frank's buddies cheer. Lauren ends up playing Hamlet (with Sandy as her co-star), and Korzenousky, who is in the audience, says that it was the best Hamlet ever, except for his.
