Audio problem: When the three (plus Jane's kids in the back of the car) are approaching Robert's store to rob it, in the last shot as they pull over nobody's lips move, the lines are dubbed over. (00:52:50)
How to Beat the High Co$t of Living (1980)
1 audio problem - chronological order
Directed by: Robert Scheerer
Starring: Jessica Lange, Richard Benjamin, Jane Curtin, Susan Saint James
Factual error: It is established early in the movie (Natalie's call) that the money ball event celebration is part of the -first - anniversary of the Valley River Center, the shopping mall where most of the movie is set, with the town of Eugene, Oregon, mentioned explicitly. However, the center opened in 1969, and the movie is set in 1980. The original script was written in 1971, so that line needed an update and slipped by.
