Mistakes

In the scene when Dr. Sawyer is giving Kris the exam, during the part where Kris is doing the physical coordination test, we see Kris from Sawyer's point of view, and Sawyer is drumming his fingers. When the shot switches to Kris's, he is fingering his eyebrow. When it switches back, fingers drumming. Finally, when it switches back again, his hands are neatly folded in front of him. See more...

Comments made in brackets are corrections from other visitors. As such, any aggressive/abusive corrections (and I get quite a few) written as if they're comments I've made myself will be ignored. To submit your own corrections for mistakes, just click the edit icon under an entry, then choose "correct entry". Some entries have "duplicated entry" after them - these are entries which were already listed on the main page, but were submitted again. I occasionally leave these online for a while, just in case they were moved in error, so don't worry about pointing them out to me.

Entry In the final courtroom scene after all of the letters have been placed on the judge's desk, how was he able to sound the gavel if his bench is several layers deep in letters? You can hear the gavel sound again when he says "case dismissed" in the wide shot. [He could always bang the gavel on the front (vertical) part of the desk. This would be a plausible occurrence, unconventional, but not an unlikely choice under the circumstances.]
Entry The Dutch Christmas song that is sung with the war orphan from Holland is in fact not a Christmas song but a Sinterklaas song. Sinterklaas is an entirely different holiday, celebrated on the 5th of December and has nothing to do with Christmas. ["Sinterklass" day, celebrated on Dec. 6 (not 5), is the Feast of St. Nicholas according to the Christian calendar. St. Nick is of course Santa Claus, and many countries celebrate that feast with gifts and parties.]
Entry In the scene where Kris's knowledge is being tested, he incorrectly gives the vice president of President John Quincy Adams. Kris states John Quincy Adams' vice president was Daniel D. Thompkins. That's wrong. John Quincy Adams' vice president was John C. Calhoun. Daniel D. Thompkins was the vice president under President James Monroe. [Kris is deliberately trying to fail the psychological exam, that is why he answers incorrectly.]
