Revealing mistake: The monitors in the hospital attached to Mr. Banks's wife and daughter didn't move, although they should have shown something important about the patients.
Revealing mistake: The panicked drive to the hospital ostensibly takes place during the early evening, yet there is absolutely no traffic in downtown Los Angeles.
Suggested correction: They don't live in Los Angeles, they live in San Marino.
Other mistake: George and Nina are sitting in the kitchen when the ceiling leaks from the rain and George makes a comment about the roof leaking. The only problem is it is a two-story house, so the water must be coming from the floor above, not the roof.
George Banks: Now, going to the movies, that'll be economical: one child, two seniors, thanks.
Trivia: Check out the Scrabble board after Annie moves back in. Words like "epidural, breech, and mother." All birth-related words. Talk about a theme game.
Question: OK I'm gonna be dumb and ask, what on earth is Franck's nationality and accent?
Answer: Martin short once claimed in an interview that Franck is just a combination of several different nationalities that he combined for the character. Like Bronson Pinchot in Beverly Hills Cop, part of the humour is not knowing where he came from.
