Revealing mistakes: When Doreen hits Casey with her car it is obvious that she doesn't even come close to him (he's at least 10 feet away when he falls).

Well, I've watched this film about seven times now, and I feel quite certain that I can add it to the list of my favorite films alongside Dr. Strangelove and The Red, White and Blue Trilogy.
The casting is flawless, with fantastic performances by Jennifer Jason Leigh, Julianne Moore, Peter Gallagher, Frances McDormand, Robert Downey, Jr. and many (I mean *many*) more. The camera floats around the world of these characters with perfection, tapping each on the shoulder and providing precious and oh-so-interesting insight into their happiness (or lack thereof, for the most part), sadness and their emotions.
See this film. You will not regret it. I have my fingers crossed for a special edition DVD of Short Cuts.
