Goofs
|
Continuity: When Damon and Faith finally meet, they make plans to meet at the restaurant at 8:30. When she runs down the stairs to meet him, we hear a bell tower chiming multiple times. Presumably, it is either 8:00 or 9:00. Continuity: At the very end of the movie, the plane shown is an Airbus A300. On take-off, it becomes a Boeing 727 in silhouette. Continuity: At the beginning of the movie, Faith writes down the name "Damon Bradley" on two lines. In the next shot she writes the name down on one line. Revealing mistakes: There are obvious stand-ins for Marisa Tomei and Robert Downey, Jr., in two shots during the Ferrari car ride from Rome to Positani. Fact errors: When Faith and Kate on their way to Rome are having lunch beside the street, they drink white wine out of a bottle labelled as Chianti. In Tuscany only red wines can be labelled as Chianti. GEOG: Right before we see Faith packing her case at La Sirenuse, there's a shot of what is supposed, in the film, to be sunrise. However, given the geography of Positano, the position of the sun in that scene means it's actually sunset. |
Quotes

Faith Corvatch: I was born to kiss you. Kate Corvatch: I married a liar. Why? Because I married a man. Faith Corvatch: Sweet of her, wasn't it? Kate Corvatch: If I had a dress like that, I'd give it away too. Faith Corvatch: How could you do this to me? Peter: Because I'm in love with you! Faith Corvatch: Ha! What kind of an excuse is that? Peter: This guy, by the way, could be the biggest loser who ever walked the face of the earth. He could be a grump, a jerk, a pervert, a cynic, a man who's mind is infested with dark thoughts, he could be a criminal... he could be... truly sick. Peter: I can't believe you're gonna let a few little letters of the alphabet keep us apart. It is a detail! Just - look, just call me Damon, okay? It'll be like a nickname. Kate Corvatch: [Faith is parading up and down in the wedding dress humming the wedding march] Does it come with a soundtrack? Faith Corvatch: [Faith and Peter are kissing passionately] There's something I have to tell you. Peter: There's nothing you could tell me that would change the way I feel about you. Faith Corvatch: I'm engaged. We're due to be married, in 9 days. Peter: [alarmed] Whoa, whoa! Except possibly that. Wait a second, what? Faith Corvatch: You know him. Dwayne. When you called the other night, that was me on the phone. Peter: [getting really worked up and freaked out] What? Dwayne? Faith Corvatch: But I thought I'd never find you! [kisses him again] Peter: I understand. [melts into her arms] Faith Corvatch: Why couldn't we just have arranged marriages in America? Kate Corvatch: Yeah, at least you could spend the rest of your life blaming your parents instead of yourself. Peter: Realistically, like, what are the odds that he's, like, some extra super double terrific guy. Kate Corvatch: 10 billion to one? Peter: Exactly. Faith Corvatch: He was eccentric, and not in a good way! Kate Corvatch: You mean like in your way? Peter: [after Harry Elbows him on the nose] Jesus, Harry! Peter: You said whatever it was that you'd understand. Faith Corvatch: That's before I knew what it was! |
