Little Miss Sunshine (2006)
1 character mistake
Directed by: Jonathan Dayton, Valerie Faris
Starring: Steve Carell, Toni Collette, Alan Arkin, Greg Kinnear, Abigail Breslin, Paul Dano
Continuity mistake: In the Little Miss Sunshine pageant there is a girl who, in the talent competition, does a dance in a cyan-colored uniform-type costume. Her act is before Olive's, which is the very last act, however after the girl's act, she can be seen in one shot being led towards the stage and in another having makeup put on, both times in the same costume. Neither of these should be happening if she has already done her act.
Olive: Do you think there's a Heaven?
Frank: Well, it's hard to say, Olive. I don't think anyone knows for sure.
Olive: I know, but what do you think?
Frank: Well... um... uh.
Olive: I think there is.
Frank: Think I'll get in?
Olive: Yeah.
Frank: Promise?
Olive: Yeah.
Trivia: Before he was cast as Frank, Steve Carell was relatively unknown in Hollywood. But by the time the film was released, he had shot to stardom in both The 40 Year Old Virgin and "The Office".
