Roxanne

Revealing mistake: After CD has swoon Roxanna for Chris, Charlie falls out of a tree in front of the old ladies. If you look close you can see a darker patch of grass that CD falls in. It's clear it's placed there as a soft landing pad for the stunt man to hit.

Revealing mistake: There are several scenes where the line where the prosthetic nose ends is very obvious: when CD goes up a hill to find out Roxanne is in love and when he buys make-up, for example.

Factual error: When they are putting out the fire, Charlie belts out "I want two 2-1/2 inch lines from the pump to the fire and three 1-1/2 inch lines from the hydrant to the pump". This is backwards. No fire department would ever use three small handlines to supply an engine from a hydrant.

Charlie: What a waste of an opportunity. You have THIS in front of you, and all you can think of is 'Big Nose'?!

Trivia: The surgeon's nameplate on his desk reads "Dr. Schepisi." This is a nod to the film's director. Fred Schepisi.
