Corrected entry: In the scene at the club, Lisa is doing the macarena. The movie takes place in 1987, this dance wasn't invented until the 1990's.

Correction: The song was recorded in the '90s, but the dance moves (and similar dances) were done in the 70s to "The Locomotion" by Little Eva, and the music and dance moves are very close to "It Ain't What You Do, But The Way That You Do It", a jazz song covered by Kylie Minogue and Fun Boy Three in 1982. If she was dancing to the song by Los del Rio, which wasn't recorded until 1993 it's a legitimate mistake, but if it's just the dance moves it's not. Please clarify.

Factual error: After James leaves the bar and is driving, you see a dealership in the background and you can see new trucks and a new model yellow mustang. The movie takes place in 1987, so the vehicles are about 20 years too new. (01:26:00)
