Factual error: When a young Steve Mills is struggling for conversation topics with Lisa in 1962, he comments that her black eye makes her look like the Tareyton commercial. However, those "I'd rather fight than switch" ads weren't aired until late 1964.
Marilyn Hotchkiss Ballroom Dancing and Charm School (2005)
1 factual error - chronological order
Directed by: Randall Miller
Starring: John Goodman, Marisa Tomei, Robert Carlyle, Sean Astin, Mary Steenburgen, Elden Henson

But, one must shoulder its challenges with intrepid countenance if one is ever to reap its rewards.
