Continuity: Giosuè spots his mama from the tank when they go down a mountain road with rocks left and right, but when he runs over to her he crosses a lush meadow.

Revealing: When Guido tries to escape camouflaged as a woman and is stopped by the guards the second from right prisoner cannot help laughing.

Continuity: When the brakes of Guido's and Ferrucio's car fail while going downhill and they take a direct route through the thicket the windshield gets covered with branches and twigs. When they arrive at the town and Guido is standing up looking over the blocked windshield the camera cuts to a close-up where suddenly one branch stands high up right in front of Guido.

Revealing: When Guido knocks the flower pot from the window sill and it breaks on Rodolfo's head it looks and disintegrates like wood but sounds like terracotta.

Continuity: In the scene where Guido has his sudden entrance from behind Ferrucio to surprise Dora and her colleague watch the café in the background: two girls disappear from the table on the right between shots.

Revealing: When Guido acts as the school inspector he is wearing jacket and trousers and a sash rather tightly through his crotch. After the camera cuts to the approaching real school inspector for a few seconds Guido has gotten rid of trousers and jacket, but the sash is still in place, a feat worthy of the great Houdini.

Other: When Guido drops Dora at home after he had "kidnapped" her from the opera the rain has stopped. She mentions his wet hat, he takes it off and puts it back on, and when he bends forward a substantial trickle comes running off the brim. There should be no water left (if any) after he had taken the hat off.

Continuity: After Guido has been escorted from the bookstore by the police his mother-in-law comes to the store. Giosuè picks up a pile of books from the floor with a red book on top, but when the camera angle changes there's a white book on top of the pile.

Continuity: Dora enters the train a few minutes later than Guido and Giosuè, but their shadows point in totally different directions.

Continuity: When Guido and Giosuè enter the barrack there are symmetrical rows of bunk beds on both sides. When Guido returns after his first day of labor there's a shot of the door where the end of the left row of bunk beds isn't visible even though the perspective should include it.

Continuity: When Guido and Giosuè speak over the camp's public address system the sun is shining from a cloudless sky. Also when Dora hears them, stops working and walks to the door the sun is in her face. However, when she stands in the door the sunlight is gone, to be back in her face in the following close-up.

Continuity: When Guido pretends to quit the 'game' and walks out of the barrack Giosuè first follows him slowly, then stops. Seen from the back he is standing further back than from the front.
