...when the blonde hiker asks "Have you ever met an advertising man? The worst".

it happens about 70 minutes into the film and I wonder who else noticed and if you think its a in-joke or something :)

Just seen that particular scene on C5. It was a bit odd. Hmmm...?

Yeah, that was a bit odd.

There is no flavor text!

He doesn't look directly into the camera, he's looking "past" the camera, as if to check on his prisoner or his son. The camera's position just makes it look as if he's looking into it.

Perhaps - but its still a direct to camera shot - its either a directing accident or something else. Maybe we'll never know...
