Shatnetz - first comment
Leviticus 19:19 prohibits the mixing of wool and linen threads in clothing. This rule, known as "shatnetz", is sometimes taken to prohibit the mixing of any different fabrics in clothing. When Sam, a clothing manufacturer, is arrested, he is surprised and says "what for, mixing silk and cotton?" This obscure gag is probably attributable to either Zucker or Abrahams. This is the first time any commenter on this film has pointed this out.
