Mistake Continuity: The morning after Vivian's first night at the hotel, room service brings breakfast. She is eating a croissant in one shot, in the next it's a pancake, and the pancake goes from being half done to being a whole pancake again. (Between the moment she is eating a croissant and a pancake there is a shot of Edward talking, time enough for her to change her food). The rest of the mistake is correct.

Mistake Continuity: When Vivian is watching I Love Lucy, she goes over to Edward and undoes his tie, and then goes to get a pillow or something, in the next shot of him his tie is done again, then goes back to being undone.

Mistake Continuity: When Vivian is taking a bath and singing that song, the Walkman is lying on the right side of the tub, with its wires resting along the edge of the tub. When it cuts from Edward back to Vivian, the Walkman is in a different place and the headphone wire is in the water.

Mistake Continuity: When Vivian and Edward are sitting down with David and his dad for the important business meeting, they all get served ice cream in goblets. The waiters take them away, but when they stand up to leave those goblets are still there.

Mistake Continuity: In the scene where Stuckey hits Vivian she rips his watch off. You can see it fly off to the left. In the next scene (where she bites him) it's there. Then when Edward pulls him off Vivian it's gone again.

Mistake Continuity: In the scene where Edward and Vivian first meet, and they drive off, he switches drivers. When she first gets in, she says, "Put on your seatbelt, I am taking you for a ride..." So she and Edward put on their seatbelts, but in the next shot she doesn't have it on.

Mistake Continuity: In the scene where Vivian and Edward sit in Edward's room, in the hotel, for the first time, she shows him a selection of different coloured condoms. The order of those condoms changes, between the shots facing her and the shots facing her back.

Mistake Continuity: In the scene when Vivian and Edward are arguing, she asks for her money, so he reaches for his wallet and takes the money out. When he drops the money on the bed, part of the money is lying on the corner of his suit jacket. After Vivian walks out, when he turns to see if she took the money, it is not lying on his jacket, but at the edge of the bed.

Mistake Revealing: Tire tracks from the camera vehicle can be seen in the grass in the brief shot of polo players moving toward the camera.

Mistake Continuity: When Vivian and Edward are in the limo getting ready to stop at The Blue Banana so that Vivian can see her roommate, Kit, he is wearing a suit, but no vest. When he gets out of the car, a vest has magically appeared on him. Director's cut.

Mistake Continuity: When Vivian is singing in the bathroom, Edward is talking on a corded phone in the other room. The cord extends enough to let him go into the bathroom, but he never hangs up the phone. It just seems to vanish.

Mistake Continuity: At the beginning of the scene, when Edward picks Vivian up at the hotel for their first dinner out, he walks up to the phone bank and picks up the phone with his left hand and his briefcase is in his right hand (down at his side). When he speaks with the manager, he hangs up the phone still with his left hand and then reaches up on the counter with his right hand to get his briefcase (which he never set up there). He keeps his right arm down at his side the whole time.

Mistake Continuity: In the scene where Vivian, after having taken a long bath, has just been hired by Edward to stay a week, she throws herself onto the bed. The bottom of her feet are very dirty.

Mistake Continuity: In the final scene when Edward and Vivian meet on her fire escape, as the camera angle changes from panning behind Edward to get a shot of Vivian's face and vice versa, Vivian is taller than Edward in one shot and then he is taller than her in the next. This continues throughout the entire scene.

Mistake Continuity: At the beginning of the movie, when Edward is struggling to drive the car and pulls over to the curb, the car's headlights are on, but when Vivian gets in the car she tells him "lights would be good" and you see the lights come on.

Mistake Continuity: When Vivian is standing at the elevator at the hotel after the polo match trying to leave because she is mad at Edward, from the side shots her clothes are over her arm, but in the front shots her arm is over the clothes. (It may be the other way round).

Mistake Continuity: During the scene where Vivian is with Edward at the hotel room, they're talking while he's inside sitting and she's outside. You can see on the first shot it's day time and when Edward stands up and goes near her it's evening time already. (or viceversa)

Mistake Continuity: Vivian has just taken over driving the car and its aerial is down (located on the front left of the car), in the next scene the aerial is up. After the "talking in the car" scene the aerial is still up, however in the scene after that when she turns the corner the aerial is down.

Mistake Continuity: In the scene where she is eating the croissant then the pancake, her hair is shorter and pulled behind her shoulder (I think like that) and then in the next scene her hair is longer and in front of her shoulder.

Mistake Continuity: In the scene where Edward and Vivian kiss for the first time, her white nightgown goes from being long to being short.
