Night Shift

Revealing mistake: In the scene where Chuck finds Bill in the morgue vault listening to the recording of Chuck telling him to shut up, take note of Bill's thumb on the rewind button of the tape recorder. You can hear the tape recorder rewinding to replay the words, "Chuck to remind Bill to SHUT UP" multiple times but Bill's thumb does not move at all until he turns the recorder off. (00:30:00)

Continuity mistake: After Chuck breaks the liquor decanter and the desk appears free of broken glass Bill says, "Chuck you've got to keep that elbow stiff." When the camera cuts back to Chuck the entire desk appears as it was pre-fight with nothing disturbed, including a now complete and unbroken liquor decanter half filled with liquid. (01:30:40)

Continuity mistake: The position of the pin in Franklin's tie changes from lower to higher during the time it takes him to run up the stairs and enter his apartment. As he is literally running for his life, he certainly did not adjust it himself. (00:02:35)

Trivia: Two up and coming stars in this movie: Shannon Doherty was the Bluebell (girl scout) in the elevator scene and a very young Kevin Costner was Frat Boy #1 in the fraternity party scene. In fact, Doherty was the very last person credited.

Chuck: Bill, let me try to explain this to you. As we sit here and idly chat, there are women, female human beings, rolling around in strange beds with strange men and we are making money from that.
Bill: Is this a great country or what?!

Chuck: What happened? Did you fall down? Did somebody hit you?
Belinda: It's the other way around. Somebody hit me and then I fell down.
