Continuity mistake: When Monty punches that guy at the end, check out how the parting of his hair goes from left to right and back again in one shot as he falls and gets up.
Brewster's Millions (1985)
Directed by: Walter Hill
Starring: John Candy, Richard Pryor, Stephen Collins, Lonette McKee
Genres: Comedy
Factual error: Clocks usually mark the hour with their first chime. The one in Granville and Baxter's office starts striking in the seconds leading up to midnight, even though its hands are showing the time as still before the hour.
Character mistake: Baxter and Granville complain about Brewster getting airtime on TV during prime time and running TV spots in all 52 states "just in case any New Yorkers are on vacation!" (01:08:00)
Monty Brewster: Why is it when there's trouble we're the ones that get into it. I mean, there's a bar full of people and we're the only ones in jail.
Spike Nolan: I don't think it's racial you know, because I'm in here with you.
Monty Brewster: That's comforting.
Monty Brewster: Gentlemen, do you think I'm a lowlife?
Tailor: Oh no, Mr. Brewster. Not with these clothes.
Monty Brewster: Marilyn? I could die in this room.
