Other mistake: When Sid committed suicide, the coroner brought him out of the office...not his room.
An Officer and a Gentleman (1982)
1 other mistake - chronological order
Directed by: Taylor Hackford
Starring: Richard Gere, Robert Loggia, Debra Winger, David Keith
Continuity mistake: Towards the end of the movie, Richard Gere's friend hangs himself in the shower. Notice how many times his friend goes from nude to wearing underwear.
Foley: You can forget it! You're out.
Mayo: Don't you do it! Don't! You... I got nowhere else to go! I got nowhere else to g... I got nothin' else.
Trivia: John Travolta was offered the part of Mayo first but turned it down to get his pilot's license. This is not the first part Travolta gave up and Richard Gere later got: he also gave up the lead in "American Gigolo" (1974). Also, Gere was originally supposed to play Danny in "Grease" (1978).
