Death Becomes Her

Revealing mistake: When Ernest runs away from Lisle, after he nearly drinks the live-forever potion, he runs down a hallway and commences to open a door with a doorknob on the left side of the door. It then cuts to the other side of the door, of Ernest walking through the door (into the party), and now the doorknob is also on the left side of the door, but it should be on the right side.

Revealing mistake: Towards the end when Helen is about to fall down the stairs of the church (pulling Madeline with her) you can see the rope between her legs that is keeping her in the tipping point position. (01:36:55)

Revealing mistake: When Madeline is at Lisle's place the first time, she has to sit on a couch, next to a young man. Lisle tells him to make room for Madeline. He stands up and you can see a transmitter on his back attached to his pants.

Continuity mistake: Goldie Hawn and Meryl Streep are fighting over Bruce Willis. Goldie Hawn is wearing a tight shirt and tight pants. Meryl is wearing a shirt with a skirt thingy attached and tight pants. Goldie has a hole through the middle of her abdomen where Streep has shot her earlier. They both grab shovels and start fighting. Bruce Willis starts to walk upstairs and he looks over the side and sees the shadows of the two women fighting. The hole is supposed to be on the shadow with the tight pants which is Goldie. Instead, the hole is shown on the body with the skirt attached to the shirt, which is Meryl. (01:10:20)

Lisle: Drink that potion, and you'll never grow even one day older. Don't drink it, and continue to watch yourself rot.

Answer: Ernest painted Madeline's eyes before she came down the stairs. He even notes that the balance in her eyes were messed up.

Answer: Actually, they're both wearing coloured contacts. If you look at timestamp 01:17:23 when they say "Pleeeaase" to Ernest, you can see they're both wearing contacts. Meryl's aren't as noticeable, but they are the bluish-purple/periwinkle colour Ernest was using when he was painting her touch-ups on the pool table.

Answer: Her eyes changed when she fell into the hot tub. They were essentially boiled.

My interpretation was that when she was shot, she completely bled out, thus all color of her skin and eyes would fade away.

But there's no blood inside eyeballs?

There are several blood vessels that supply blood to the eyeball. The cornea is the only part of the body not supplied by blood.

It wasn't a hot tub she fell into. It was a little pond. No hot water.
