revealing mistake (anyone notice???)

ok, I have seen this movie many times and just got finished watching it again.....and I noticed something that I have never noticed before! In the scene where Shannon Doherty and Jonathan Silverman were at the mall and he was getting fitted for his suit, Shannon Doherty says "Hey, there's Jess Parker and that cool girl."......and then she proceeds to call them over. Instead of calling her by her name in the movie which is Janey, she calls her Jess Parker. Did anyone else catch that? Or is it just me? Or do I have a messed-up copy of the movie? lol

Yes mikidc it did sound like she was saying that to me too but it probably was the latter ( what everyone else said here ? ) . Thanks for the subject post .

I know this is an old thread, but I just saw it.

I have the original shooting script that I got on Ebay years ago...she says "Jeff's partner." It's in the script in black & white.

Problem solved.

ALSO! There is totallllyyyy a part where SJP calls Helen Hunt's character "Miranda"!!!! And then she refers to Jeff as "Charlotte"!! I can't believe they didn't catch that!!!!!!!

Yeah, it's totally "Jeff's partner". Case closed.

Compelling.Brilliant.Beautifully acted. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0114436/

I began reading this just prior to watching the movie and vowed to solve it. Only just now saw how it is really unnecessary as a script bought on E-Bay is absolutely the last word. Anyway, I have a larger than large TV set with wonderful sound quality and Shannen says “Look, it's Jeff's partner and that cool girl” no question about It. Rest it in peace now.

By the way, I've never liked Shannen Doherty's performances even a tiny little bit as much as I like her here. Should never have grown up. :)
