Dragonfly (2002) - 7 mistakes

Continuity: Joe leaves the gravesite with his wife's picture in hand. He reaches the cliff and jumps over: His wife's picture is no longer in his hand or his shirt pocket. When he wakes up after almost drowning, the picture is still not in his shirt pocket. Yet, when he reaches the village, he pulls it out, completely dry and intact.

Continuity: When Joe and his pilot's plane are landing, before it touches the ground we see a close-up of the native who is there to meet them. He is standing, and sports a green and yellow feather in his right ear. After the plane has landed and Joe and the pilot approach the natives, though, the feather is now sticking through the other ear.

Continuity: When Joe is leaving the dinner party after talking to the grief counselor, he puts on his jacket and the collar of his sweater is flat underneath it. The camera cuts away and when you see him again his collar is standing up closer to his neck. Then the camera cuts away and his collar is flat under his jacket when it comes back to him again.

Continuity: When Kevin Costner first meets the Venezuelan pilot who takes him into the jungle, he pulls his wife's picture from his pocket. You can see in the that split second that the picture is of 3 waterfalls, but when the closeup is shown from the pilot's point of view, the picture is different.

Factual error: Near the beginning of the movie, when Kevin Costner is going to deliver the dead mother's premature baby, he tells the nurse "Get pre-natal down here." It should be "neo-natal" since it is the neo-natal unit that cares for premature babies. Pre-natal pertains to the care of the mother and baby during pregnancy, neo-natal to the care of prematurely delivered babies.

Continuity: When Kevin Costner goes to the Catholic school to talk to Linda Hunt, he parks his car very quickly and badly at the curb, with the back end sticking out in the street. When he comes back out after being told the police are on their way, we see him walking down the sidewalk towards his car, which is now parked neatly next to the curb.

Audio problem: When Costner finds his baby, The native lady hands it to him - you can hear the baby cooing happily, but if you look closely at the baby's face you will see that she is crying.
