Atonement (2007)

Corrected entry: When Briony enters the kitchen to say she has finished her play, the cook tells her to go away as they have a dinner for 10 to prepare. The Mother, Cecelia, the brother, his friend, Briony, Lola and the twins make only eight. Robbie is not invited till after this and then it still makes only 9 for dinner.

Correction: Any number of reasons accounts for this: Rounding up the number in conversation, exagerrating her workload, expected guests that never arrived, normal 'extra' food in case of surprise/last minute guests, and so on. At worst, a character mistake.

Atonement (2007)

Corrected entry: Briony is played by 3 actresses, from a 13 year old girl to an elderly Vanessa Redgrave. I suppose that, in order to identify each actress who played the role, a mole was placed on Briony's face. The 13 year old Briony has the mole on her right cheek. The young nurse Briony has the mole on her right cheek. The first scene we see the Vanessa Redgrave Briony, the mole is properly on her right cheek. Then, suddenly, in a close up, the mole appears on Vanessa's left cheek. In the next scene, it's back on her right cheek.

Correction: The shot with it on the "wrong" cheek is her reflection in the make-up room mirror.
