Other mistake: Towards the beginning of the movie Dorothy first "meets" Jerry by eavesdropping on his conversation with a woman in the airplane. But Jerry is located in first class whereas Dorothy is in coach. Going by her seat location it seems like she's sitting at least 10 rows from Jerry, plus the area that divides coach from first class between them. And Jerry is speaking in a soft voice. Add to that the drone that an airplane makes (even if not airborne) and it's highly unlikely that she would have been able to hear him, even if he was the only person talking in the plane (also unlikely).
Jerry Maguire (1996)
1 other mistake - chronological order
Directed by: Cameron Crowe
Starring: Tom Cruise, Cuba Gooding Jr., Renée Zellweger, Kelly Preston
Continuity mistake: When Tidwell gets the wind knocked out of him at the Christmas Eve game, and he is lying in the end zone, he is clutching the ball to his chest. When the camera pans out to a distance shot, his arm is outstretched and the ball is lying off to the side. When the camera comes back in for a close up, it is clutched to his chest again.
Jerry Maguire: This is going to change everything.
Dorothy: Promise?
Trivia: Cameron Crowe wrote the role of Jerry Maguire for Tom Hanks to play instead of Tom Cruise.
Question: What is the name of the melody sung by the Mexican (mariachi) singers at the restaurant when Jerry is having dinner with Dorothy? I looked for it in the soundtrack but it's not included.
