Inconsistency - SPOILER


When Woody is hypnotized over the phone as Charlize Therone waits in bed for him, he is unable to remember later on that she had ever come to his apartment at all, even though they had had a conversation prior to the phone call. But when Helen Hunt is hypnotized, she can still remember the events that had transpired with Woody earlier in the evening. Am I correct about that? It seems like an inconsistencey (and one the plot depends upon). Did I miss something?

Another thing I noticed is that the "120 proof" vodka bottle is empty later on, although it is full when Therone shows it to Woody, and she leaves without opening it.
But that could account for the memory gap.
Anyway, the plot is pretty shambolic, I wouldn't bother with reasoning out every single detail.

This is a very old post but yes, you have a point. It looks like a big mistake in a beautiful movie, otherwise. I agree.
