Wow, misspelling!!! POSESSION

Andrew McCarthy's character holds up a piece of paper while sitting at his desk and the word "POSESSION" on a legal document is clearly misspelled. How on earth does that escape all the eyes who should have been watching this when it was made, when it was handed to the actor, when it was shot by the camera operator, when it was watched in video village, when it was edited, when it was screened….? It's not like it's in the background. It's BAM, right in your face.

I dunno. Maybe it was an oversight...maybe it was just put in for a touch of realism. How many times do we encounter misspellings like that? When I worked in the office, I'd often run across misspellings so seeing that in a movie would not automatically make me think it was an oversight. Simply realistic. I'll have to pay attention and see if I see it next time I watch it.

Just saw it...it's so blatantly wrong. I highly doubt this was intentional for realistic purposes. Nothing like this would have ever left my law office. Still trying to finish this move; it's got a few cute moments, but it is just a little too 'Hallmark-y' for my tastes. 'Holiday in Handcuffs' is much more superior, in my opinion.
