Continuity mistake: When he's called in to see the Captain, Montag wears his wristwatch turned inward (with the face resting over his pulse point). Seconds later, though he hasn't touched it, the watch has rotated itself 180 degrees and is now on top of his wrist. (00:26:05)

Deliberate mistake: Montag's hair gets intermittently shorter, longer and shorter again (and acquires a "cow lick" that wasn't there before) near the end of the film. (Oskar Werner had clashed with Francois Truffaut and deliberately had his hair cut to spite director.)

Trivia: The books seen burning at various points in the film include several of Ray Bradbury's novels (Fahrenheit 451 itself is one of these), as well as a French cinema magazine for which director Francois Truffaut once wrote a movie column.
