Nick Nolte, Rosamund Pike, and Shiloh Fernandez in Return to Sender (2015)

Goofs

Return to Sender

Edit

Factual errors

When Miranda rips the adhesive bandage off of Williams's face, no hair whatsoever is on the bandage.
When Mitchell cleans blood off Miranda's kitchen windows, it is unrealistically heavily coagulated.

Incorrectly regarded as goofs

When the man cannot breathe, Miranda does not even attempt the Heimlich Manoeuver before initiating a tracheotomy.

The Heimlich had been attempted before she was called in but "Nobody can get their arms around him".
Miranda says to her future rapist, "I squeezed fresh lemonade." One might squeeze fresh lemons to make lemonade, but one does not 'squeeze lemonade.'

That's verbal shorthand for "I squeezed (lemons to make) fresh lemonade". A listener should be able to make that leap.

Revealing mistakes

You can't keep somebody in a wrist restraint if they don't have a hand.

That's because he still has both hands, the operation conducted on him by Miranda was to castrate him.
When William is strapped down on the table covered by a sheet, you can see a blood stain by his left wrist implying as we see soon after that his left hand had been severed however, you can see movement of William's left hand and fingers through the sheet in front of the blood stain.

Crew or equipment visible

Following daddy's failed attempt to install an 'old swing on a new house' he falls when the bolt tears from the wood. As Miranda helps daddy (Nick Nolte) up, crew and equipment (boom mic) can be seen in the window reflection.
