Goofs
During the last few minutes inside Annie Wilkes' home, Annie carries a tray from the kitchen to Paul's writing studio. From left to right, the tray has the glass, the Dom Perignon bottle, the match, and the cigarette when she leaves the kitchen, but when she enters the writing studio, the glass is on the right when it should be on the left and the match and the cigarette are on the left when they should be on the right.
