Audio problem: In one of the beginning scenes, when Noah and Fin are at the fair, you see Allie and Sarah on the bumper cars. Allie bumps into Sarah, and you can see and hear Sarah yell "Rachel," which is actually the name of the actress who plays Allie - Rachel McAdams.

Continuity: When Noah and Allie are preparing to make love for the first time, they slowly undress and lower down onto the floor. The front shot of Allie shows that her hair is tied back in a Pollyanna hairstyle, but when she kneels down, the back shot shows that her hair is completely out.

Revealing: When Noah and Allie meet outside the movie theatre and later dance in the intersection of the streets, the viewer can see their breath. It is very cold outside and Noah is wearing a heavy jacket. Summer in South Carolina is oppressively hot, even at night.

Continuity: Older Noah goes to see the doctor who listens to his heart. On the wall are two x-ray films. The x-rays flip between shots, as evident by the position of the heart. At first it is on the left. When Noah gets up the heart is now on the right.

Continuity: At the very end, on the morning after Noah and Allie had died, the way the two hold each other's hands are different between shots. Note Noah's pinkie.

Continuity: When Allie drives off after she gets her letters and she and Noah argue, Noah walks significantly past the back of the car and puts his hands on his head. When Allie gets in, he's standing up by the front bumper still with his hands on his head.

Continuity: When Allie and Noah are making love after the seven years when they fall at the feather pillow, notice at the back there is a white book shelf which is at the right and only can be seen half of it. A few seconds later in the same camera position the book shelf is at the centre.

Continuity: During Noah and Allie's first date, when Noah decides to lie down in the street, his head is lined up with the double yellow center line on the road. When Allie decides to try it, Noah has moved to nearly the middle of the right lane.

Factual error: When Allie is looking at the moon before entering the house with Noah, there are a few contrails barely visible in the sky, but there couldn't have been any contrails back in those days because planes didn't fly that high or give off the same exhaust as modern-day planes.

Factual error: Allie and Noah pass a small grocery store sign in window (Peaches 2 1/2 size 3/$1). That price is correct for about 1962, but not the time frame of early 1940s.
