Up Close and Personal (1996)
Directed by: Jon Avnet
Starring: Michelle Pfeiffer, Robert Redford, Stockard Channing, Joe Mantegna
Continuity mistake: When Warren visits Tally's apartment for the first time, he says something to her just before he is leaving, he then opens the door. The next shot is of Tally - look behind her and in the corner of the room there is a mirror, you can see Warren walking up to the door again and opening it and walking out - 6 seconds after he has already done it.
Factual error: When the bodies wash up on Miami beach, they do a live remote report from the beach. However, the TV station truck that they are riding in is a regular truck that is not equipped with the satellite dish and extension pole necessary to send a live feed back to the station. They had nothing more than a shoulder camera with a wire running from it.
Tally: When I asked you how long you could stay and you said, 'Long enough, ' how long is that? When we're not together.
Warren: ...Everything shuts down.
Tally Atwater: Do you want to be with me?
Warren Justice: So much it hurts.
Tally Atwater: What we in the news business can never forget is that we are only as good as the stories we tell.
