Continuity mistake: The first time we see the scene of Birdie sitting poolside waxing about her and Miles' fame, she brings her left hand up to hold down the side of her large hat, which obscures the camera from seeing Ms. Brand sitting down next to her, and when done speaking she pulls the hat down from the brim. When the scene is shown later a second time from Brand's point of view, when Birdie is talking she isn't holding the side of her hat, and takes it off from the top.
Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery (2022)
Directed by: Rian Johnson
Starring: Edward Norton, Daniel Craig, Kate Hudson
Audio problem: When Lionel tells the others to lift the button at the center of the compass, you can notice that the music box is still playing, but the drum of the machine is still. (00:08:30)
Audio problem: Blanc and Lionel are talking about Andi on the ship headed to the island. "In one legal move, he cut her out completely", Lionel says, but the second half of the phrase his chin (as you can tell by his conspicuous beard) is not moving. (00:18:45)
Trivia: Miles Bron's dining room features several paintings, from the most famous painting in the world the Mona Lisa to others, sometimes with garish self-insertions of Miles himself. One of the paintings is Mark Rothko's Number 207 (Red over Dark Blue on Dark Gray), which Rian Johnson explicitly asked to hang upside down - a hint to the fact that Miles is kinda clueless. (00:41:20)
Trivia: The hourly "dong" is voiced by Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Rian Johnson's frequent collaborator.
Trivia: During the scene of Birdie Jay 's arrival on the pier, the driver of the moped is a producer of the movie, Nikos Karamigios, appearing in the credits as N.J. Gentry. In his video breaking down the arrival scene on the Vanity Fair youtube channel, Rian Johnson "busts" him looking at the camera, breaking the fourth wall. (00:13:55)
Benoit Blanc: You dimwitted... brainless... JACKASS! Your one murder with any panache at all, and you stole the whole idea from me.
Birdie Jay: Like Miles said, I'm a truth teller. Some people can't handle it.
Benoit Blanc: It's a dangerous thing to mistake speaking without thought for speaking the truth. Don't you think?
Birdie Jay: Are you calling me dangerous?
Benoit Blanc: We'll see.
Helen Brand: Your fuel of the future just barbecued the world's most famous painting, you dumbass. Congratulations on the public launch of Klear, and the end of Miles Bron. You're ruined. And you did get your wish - to forever be remembered in the same breath as the Mona Lisa.
