Continuity mistake: When David tells Kevin and Jennifer about Bean staying at their house and he says "Let's say there is a chart of the most intelligent people...", you can see a blue pillow on the couch which Kevin and Jennifer are sitting on. When it cuts to a shot behind them you can see the pillow is on Kevin's lap. When it cuts again the pillow's back on the couch. (00:08:15)
Bean (1997)
Directed by: Mel Smith
Starring: Burt Reynolds, Rowan Atkinson, John Mills, Peter MacNicol, Pamela Reed
Continuity mistake: When Bean is alone in the room with the original painting when they get it, he's blowing at the right side of the frame in one shot, but blowing in the middle in the next shot. (00:40:15)
Visible crew/equipment: When Mr. Bean is in the boardroom of people discussing his fate at the beginning of the movie, there's one shot where you can see a cameraman's feet and a moving cable reflected in a shiny surface.
Kevin Langley: Hey, what's wrong with Meat Loaf's butt?
General Newton: I don't know the difference between Picasso and a car crash.
David Langley: Why am I worried about this? You did it! All I gotta do is go tell 'em what happened. But they'll say, "Who left him alone with the picture?" And I'll say, "Me." And they'll say, "You're fired" and I'll say, "Fine." They'll say, "No, no, no, firing's not good enough. Let's prosecute you for negligence." I go to jail, my wife leaves me, my daughter becomes a prostitute, I wind up on death row sharing a cell with Butch McDick.
Question: Why did David get back in the shower with Mr Bean after hanging up the phone?
Answer: In the context of the movie, the "damage" has already been done, so-to-speak... he's already in the shower with Bean. And since he's also in a big rush to get to the museum, he decides to just keep showering. (In a meta, behind-the-scenes sense, it's also just funnier for him to stay in the shower rather than get out and wait for Bean.)
