I call it scene creep. Got that from some forum a long time ago. Not sure what others call it. This is where you remember a scene all wrong and/or get two different scenes scrambled together.
I just watched the clip from Godfellas for the "Am I a clown?" scene. My memory said that the waiter that was shot in the foot was the one in that scene. But no, they are two different scenes. The waiter was shot for not bringing a drink then trying to explain it. The clown scene was just a joke between friends.
I read a long time ago about how our memories cannot be trusted. And I experience that with movies a lot.
