P.S. I Love You (2007) - 30 mistakes

Continuity: After Gerry gets smacked in the face by the 'broken' suspender clasp, we see the silver clasp land under the dresser. Yet, when he's moaning and lifting his leg to get onto the bed, we can actually see the clasp still intact on the front suspender that came loose, which is dangling right behind him (just look between his legs). Of course, in the next shot, that clasp is gone. Since the silver clasp is one of the plot points, this is bizarre to say the least.

Continuity: After Holly and Gerry’s argument near the start, when Gerry begins his little dance in boxers, as he removes his leather jacket one of the back suspender clasps comes undone. When he lies down beside Holly, both back clasps are on properly.

Continuity: Near the start, when Gerry comes back into the apartment after the fight, his suspenders are off, but in the next shot as Holly jumps over the couch his suspenders are on, only to be off again once she’s in Gerry’s arms.

Visible crew/equipment: When Holly and Sharon are showing the apartment to the couple, just as Sharon says, “I think if you offer another hundred grand, they’ll back right down,” the reflection of a moving boom mic is visible in the center window between Holly and Ted.

Continuity: When the dry cleaning arrives and Holly lays it out on the table, right behind her is the large flip-over wall hanging, with a picture of balloons. When she pulls the leather jacket out of the plastic, the wall hanging is flipped open to a picture of a bird.

Continuity: Having just arrived at the house in Ireland, when Sharon is about to walk into the kitchen, in the shot facing the sink we can see the vase of flowers on the wood table, right beside the envelope. In the shot facing Sharon there is a white tablecloth under the vase.

Continuity: In Ireland, Holly and William are drinking in the kitchen. Between shots, the amount of liquid in Holly's glass changes.

Continuity: After returning from Ireland, when Holly hears Denise’s phone message she throws the remote at her dresser and knocks over the frame face down. When she walks to the dresser the frame is now face up. Jewelry differs as well.

Continuity: At karaoke, in the flashback, when Gerry is on stage asking, “Who wants a shot?” he’s holding a drink in his right hand. Next shot, facing the audience, he’s pointing to individuals with his empty right hand, but next shot the glass is back in his hand.

Other: When Holly and Daniel are at Yankee Stadium, the seat numbers in the rows behind them are not consistent from row to row.

Continuity: When Holly visits Gerry’s parents, there’s a close-up of his letter to them. A moment later we can see the front of the letter, as his mum holds it, and the writing differs in relation to the Enniskerry Limo logo at the top.

Continuity: While William is in the shower, Holly finishes the dishes and folds the towel neatly then places it on the bowl, but that towel messes and rights itself and the utensils move in the following shots.

Continuity: When Gerry and Holly first meet, she says, “I’ll never forget this,” and the leather jacket is completely unbuttoned. When Holly remembers that she’s wearing his jacket it’s suddenly half buttoned up, just as Brody, the 'wild Irish dog' runs towards them.

Deliberate "mistake": After the broken suspender clasp smacks Gerry in the face, in the close-up it lands under the dresser, within the wide strip of light reflection. In all other shots the entire area beneath the dresser is in shadow.

Continuity: When Holly and Daniel are in the small room at the back with alcohol, Daniel's hair continuously changes between shots.

Continuity: At the Irish Famine Memorial, when Daniel says, “I think you’re a little bit perverted,” regarding the corned beef sandwiches, Holly’s handbag dangles from her left arm, but next shot it’s on her right arm.

Continuity: When Holly picks up the shoe with Gerry’s silver suspender clasp, the picture frame is upright with the phone behind it. When she turns the shoe around to examine it, the frame is lying flat on its back, with the phone in front of it.

Continuity: When Holly sings with Judy Garland, she has a “pimple” on her forehead. When Sharon gives Holly a manicure, the skin on Holly’s forehead is flawless in the close-up – not hidden under makeup.

Continuity: At Gerry's funeral, the guests do shots to honor him, placing the glasses on top of the urn. However, when everyone is getting food and drinks after, the urn is shown in the background with the glasses neatly in front of it again.

Continuity: Near the start, as Holly removes her jewelry, Gerry holds her boot mimicking her. Its zipper faces Gerry’s right, with the heel beside his face, but when he slams it down the boot is in his hand the opposite way.

Factual error: At the beginning of the movie, we find out that Holly and Gerri were married when she was 19. She then turns 30, so at least 11 years have passed since the day that they met. However, when Holly sees Gerri in the pub on the day that they meet, he sings "The Galway Girl". This song was not written by Steve Earl until 2000, and they must have met sometime around the year 1996.

Continuity: At Patricia’s bar, when she and her daughters eat dinner together, Ciara picks up the platter of meat and bowl of corn salad, next shot they’ve switched hands.

Continuity: When William gets dressed after his shower, the necklace he wears keeps turning about – note the pendant and knot.

Continuity: When Holly and Sharon are showing the apartment to the couple, in the first exterior shot from the street, as we hear Holly’s voiceover and see her in the center window, all of the window shades on the left are halfway down. In the next interior shot, the shades on the right and left side are up near the top.

Continuity: At the karaoke bar, before Holly sings the second time, when Ciara and Daniel walk in she puts her coat down under the table, but in the next shot she’s still wearing it.

Continuity: With Holly’s birthday cake came a tape recorder from Gerry, and in the wideshot Holly turns it on with her thumb, but in the close-up with her index finger.

Continuity: When Holly talks to the leprechaun, his balloons keep changing position.

Revealing: When Holly is in bed with William, and then finds out that he is 'Billy from the band', just as she pulls away from him to bolt out of bed, the modesty top she wears is quickly seen.

Continuity: When Holly takes the garments from the dry cleaning delivery guy, the envelope and note reading, 'found in leather jacket' are visible under the plastic. When she removes the envelope from the bag, the note's handwriting is quite different.

Other: When Holly and her mother take a stroll in the park, Holly mispronounces the name of her dead husband - while the name is pronounced "dj-e-r-i" throughout the whole movie, Holly calls him "g-e-r-i" here.
