Alice in Wonderland (1951) - 20 mistakes
starring Bill Thompson, Ed Wynn, Jerry Colonna, Kathryn Beaumont, Richard Haydn, Sterling Holloway (add more)
Factual error: In the opening credits, Lewis Carroll is spelt incorrectly, as 'Carrol.'
Continuity: When Alice shrinks after being huge in the forest, you can see both pieces of mushroom in her hands, untouched, although she has taken a bite out of both pieces.
Continuity: When Alice is in the tree playing with her cat in the first part of the film, the flowers she is making into a crown changes in size throughout the scene.
Continuity: The Walrus has rips on two of the fingers of his gloves he wears, but when he picks up the cigar from the beach, there are no rips on his gloves.
Continuity: When Alice is up in the tree she is making a daisy-chain and her lap is empty. In a closeup though, daisies appear on her lap.
Audio problem: When the box of cakes appears, Alice takes one, and says "Goodness know what.", and then she puts the cake in her mouth, and is visibly not moving her mouth, however we still hear her say ".this will do."
Continuity: After the Mad Hatter has finished filling the pocket watch with food, the watch starts flipping about and going mad and as it spins and flips, you can see the face of the watch has disappeared.
Continuity: When the Walrus talks to the oysters underwater, the number and position of oysters changes throughout the scene.
Continuity: The Walrus leads 12 oysters to the 'restaurant', yet after he eats them all, there are over 20 oyster shells.
Continuity: When Tweedle Dum and Tweedle Dee are telling Alice the story about the walrus and the fisherman, when the walrus has the oysters in the hut and he looks at the menu it is right ways up telling you that oysters are being served. He then places it upside down on the table so the menu should be upside down writing however when the next shot comes in the menu is the right way up.
Continuity: When Alice grows really huge in the forest, the mushroom pieces should be very very small in comparison to her, yet they are quite big. Because when we later see Alice lick the mushroom and become her normal height, the mushroom pieces are small.
Continuity: When the Walrus is talking to the oysters, the mother oyster turns to look at her calendar. In a wide shot the calendar has five rows of days, yet in the closeup there are six rows.
Continuity: When Alice becomes huge in the forest, there is a purple bird on her head in a nest. She gathers five eggs and she is about to leave. But when Alice turns small again and the bird falls down, she gathers around eight eggs in her arms.
Continuity: When Alice enters the White Rabbit's home, a grandfather clock is present near the door, by the foot of the stairs. But when her leg starts growing, and it goes down the stairs, the clock is nowhere to be seen.
Continuity: When we see the box of cakes appear in front of Alice, it shows us Alice is sitting on an orange tile on the tiled floor. It cuts to a wider shot and she is now sitting on a black tile.
Continuity: In the song 'painting to roses red', after Alice sing 'Oh, pardon me, But Mister Three Why must you paint them red?' the three cards say 'Huh? Oh!'. When they say that, The three of clubs card has a three in the bottom right corn with no clubs symbol on top of the three. the three of clubs also has nothing in the top left corner. The Ace and 2 of clubs have nothing in both of there corner. A few slides later, the symbols in the corners come back.
Continuity: When Alice returns to the caterpillar and he says "keep your temper" he is coloured opposite to how he normally looks, with a dark blue front and light blue back.
Continuity: When the Queen of Hearts spots the tree of roses dripping with red paint, on the floor by the tree is a can of paint. The can disappears when the Queen rips the tree out of the ground.
Continuity: This occurs when Alice is near the cards during the painting the roses red scene. When they say "ooohh" the two & the three are next to each other, the shot goes to Alice then back to the cards and the two and the ace are now next to each other.
