Continuity mistake: When Maggie is first shown in her hospital bed, you see her left eye is closed and swollen from the fight. Then, you see her left eye normal, then it goes back to swollen and shut. (01:33:20)

Directed by: Clint Eastwood
Starring: Clint Eastwood, Morgan Freeman, Hilary Swank, Jay Baruchel
Factual error: It is said Maggie can't breathe on her own after her injury. If this was the case she wouldn't be able to speak, since she can't push air out of her lungs to generate sound.
Eddie Scrap-Iron Dupris: I have HBO.
Trivia: The "little girl in truck" is Clint Eastwood's real-life daughter, Morgan.
Question: Spoiler! Doesn't Maggie have the legal right to refuse any type of life support? She's completely cognitive and in possession of all her mental faculties. Why does Frankie have to sneak in and illegally participate in her assisted suicide?
Answer: Suicide is a sin and is said that you go to hell if you commit suicide. By Frankie doing it, it frees her spiritually from damnation in the eyes of God.
