Continuity mistake: When Red is walking along the beach before he meets Andy his hat flies off and almost lands in the water. In the next wide shot the hat is lying a few meters inland against the direction of the wind. (02:10:30)

Continuity mistake: When Joan is looking for paper tissue to wipe off the tears she sheds over her own book she finally blows her nose with a note stuck to the mirror, saying "Don't forget - buy tissue". The note was stuck on the left side of the mirror, but when she grabs it in close-up it's stuck in the middle. (00:04:45)

NancyFelix

Continuity mistake: Before Joan and Jack go down the waterfall in Ralph's car they are seen heading for the sliding roof to get out. In the next, wide shot a split second later they are hanging on to the sides. (01:19:20)

Continuity mistake: When Joan leaves for the airport by taxi she's being watched by Zolo who is sitting in his car. Depending on the camera angle, his windshield wipers are either in normal or in interval mode. (00:18:15)

Night on Earth (1991)

Revealing mistake: When the dead padre is pulled across the ground he lifts his head (not to get hurt?), and when he is finally placed on the bench he blinks and breathes. One of the most most living dead I've seen in a movie. (01:30:00)

Night on Earth (1991)

Continuity mistake: The part where Corky drives Victoria through LA must have been composed from two takes, one where Corky has more rouge on her cheeks and only a small streak of dirt on her cheek (from an earlier car repair), and another one with almost no make up and an oil streak that goes from her ear to her nose.
