Revealing mistake: In the scene where the grandfather has passed away and the family is at the hospital, there is a shot where the family steals his body and pushes it out a window. At one point in the next shot, when the family is carrying "him" to their van, the sheet moves and it's obvious the cast is carrying a bunch of pillows covered in a sheet. This also is obvious from the ridiculous way the "body" is laying on the bed prior and folds up when the cast picks "him" up and hoists "him" out the window.
Little Miss Sunshine (2006)
1 revealing mistake
Directed by: Jonathan Dayton, Valerie Faris
Starring: Steve Carell, Toni Collette, Alan Arkin, Greg Kinnear, Abigail Breslin, Paul Dano
Factual error: The family passes an exit for Carefree Highway. This is an exit off I-17 a few miles North of Phoenix. At that point they would be about 10 miles from Scottsdale. Yet they drive all day and that night they are still within scooter range from Scottsdale.
Dwayne: You know what? Fuck beauty contests. Life is one fucking beauty contest after another. You know, school, then college, then work, fuck that. And fuck the air force academy. If I wanna fly, I'll find a way to fly. You do what you love, and fuck the rest.
Frank: I'm glad you're talking again, Dwayne. You're not nearly as stupid as you look.
Trivia: The four customers who are seated behind Sheryl and Richard during the diner scene are the parents of the movie's directors Jonathan Dayton and Valerie Faris.
