Movie Trivia/Goofs

→ View All

The kissing scene between Sarah Michelle Gellar and Selma Blair, ranked the film at #32 on Entertainment Weekly's "The 50 Sexiest Movies Ever" (issue #1023, November 28, 2008).
Movie Goof (continuity error): When Cecile and Kathryn are talking secretly in a private room, the hair behind Cecile's ear alternates position from behind her ear to covering her ear.
The scene in which Annette slaps Sebastian was also unscripted. Reese Witherspoon and Ryan Phillippe were so into their scene that she slapped him unexpectedly, and Phillippe's reaction is genuine. He was so into the scene that right after the director said cut, he went behind the set and threw up. The director left the scene in the final cut.
Movie Goof (errors made by characters, possibly deliberate errors by the filmmakers): Sebastian's Journal has the word "friendship" spelled as "freindship".
