Hard Day's Night movie corrections

In the lunch car as Paul signs the picture for his grandfather he's holding it with his right hand. In the next shot his hand has moved and he's holding in with his thumb. See more...

Throughout the film people keep referring to Paul's granddad as a 'very clean man'. This is a reference to the programme 'Steptoe and Son' which Wilfred Bramble starred in. Through the entire run of the series he was constantly referred to by his son as 'You dirty old man'. See more...

John Lennon wasn't supposed to be in the bathroom scene in which George teaches Shake how to shave; he just happened to be in the bathtub at the time. [There are so many things wrong with those two sentences that it is difficult to know where to start. It is not a real bethroom - it is a set in the Borehamwood Studios. None of the plumbing would have been real, and the bathtub would have to have been filled by hand. A character in a scene - especially a featured player - is never 'just there'. He would have to be lit properly, for a start. Lennon is wearing a joke costume - in the bath. Why? For a movie laugh, that's why. He is a part of this scene as scripted and shot.]

At the point when George is asked to autograph a photo for Paul's grandfather, he pulls the pen out of his pocket before he is asked to sign. [He's a celebrity (albeit a minor one, in this film), and when someone holds a photograph out, he knows what they want - an autograph. Not a mistake.]

Just after John has his "you look just like him" conversation with the lady in the hall, he goes up the stairs, turns, and says "She looks more like him than I do," but his lips don't move. [Of course his lips doesn't move it's his inner monologue, he's saying that sentence to himself in his head.]

When John is in the bathtub playing with the ship, he goes underwater and you can see his black bathing suit beneath the bubbles. [When the bathtub is drained you can see John's suit still in the tub. This was a "funny" like George shaving the mirror, John bathes in his swimsuit. It was suppose to have been seen.]

At the end of the movie when the Beatles are boarding the helicopter John loses one of his shoes. [It's actually George losing the shoe, this is mentioned in one of the interviews in the Supplemental Material on the DVD.]
