Rain Man

Visible crew/equipment: When Charlie is taking Ray to the bar for his date with Iris, in the mirrored wall behind them you see a lady in a blue shirt motioning for the extras to walk by the camera.

Plot hole: Raymond's rigidly set routines force him to watch the TV shows "People's Court" and "Jeopardy" at the same times every day. Traveling on the road, however, this would be almost completely impossible, since the two shows aired in syndication. Not all cities aired them at the same times.

Trivia: When this movie gave a test screening, it got terrible reactions from the audience, mostly because of the ending and the public's lack of understanding of Autism. One test audience member even went so far to say that he was mad Raymond didn't "snap out of it" at the end.

Question: Why did Charlie take Raymond to meet Iris for the "date"? He knew that there was no real "date" because Iris is a prostitute. So why make him wait for her?

Answer: Susanna was there as well; Charlie just used the "date" as a reason for the three of them to go down for a drink together. He knew Iris wouldn't show up.
