Did You Know?

Edit
Trivia The scene in which Margaret Matheson exposes a psychic healer by listening in on a partner feeding him instructions wirelessly was based on the case in which skeptics James Randi and Steve Shaw (better known under his stage name Banachek), with technical assistance from crime scene analyst and electronics expert Alexander Jason, exposed Peter Popoff in 1986. In that case, as in the scene, Popoff's wife Elizabeth was feeding him information that she and her aides had taken from prayer request cards filled out by audience members over wireless radio. Some of the dialogue is taken almost verbatim from the actual case. In May 1986, Randi presented the evidence on The Tonight Show Starring Johnny Carson (1962)(Johnny Carson hosted until 1992), exposing Popoff's fraudulent practices. In 1987, Popoff declared bankruptcy, only to make a comeback in the late 1990s and early 2000s. See more »
Goofs Tom is badly beaten in a bathroom, suffering injuries that would likely have landed him in a hospital as a patient. Instead, he makes his way to a hospital to disconnect Margaret's comatose son from life support. Tom's injuries would have been spotted by hospital staff and he would almost certainly have been encouraged to seek medical attention. Instead, Tom ends up in the son's hospital room, unimpeded by hospital staff, and simply turns a dial to stop the life support functions. See more »
