The Parent Trap (1961) - 14 mistakes
Continuity: When the girls in Sharon's cabin have been booby-trapped, they all wake up screaming to the sound of the bugle. There are shots of them in their beds and then one shot of a girl in the middle of the cabin getting a bucket of water dumped on her head. Considering that the cabin is covered in strings and stuff how could she have gotten there in just seconds?
Continuity: In Sharon and Susan's isolation cabin, the positions of Susan's celebrity photos on the wall change between shots, after being windblown. Submitted by Rikki
Continuity: When the girls are talking in the cabin after they find out they are sisters, Sharon is holding a cup of ice cream. When the shot alternates from rear to front views, the spoon is in her hand, then in the cup, then back in her hand again. Submitted by William Bergquist
Revealing: When in Boston, while walking through the park, Susan and her mother are obviously walking on a treadmill because the park background is moving way to fast for their walking speed. Submitted by William Bergquist
Revealing: When the two girls are singing their song, the girl on the left waves her arm up and it disappears for a second, because of the split screen. Submitted by William Bergquist
Continuity: In the cabin when they are coming up with the idea to swap places, Susan has on white sneakers in the beginning of the scene when she is on the bed, and Sharon has on the black Mary Janes. Later in the scene, with no time to change shoes, Susan is seen walking around the cabin wearing the black Mary Janes.
Continuity: When Mitch drives home from the airport, with 'Susan', the car's rear view mirror is gone in the close-ups, but reappears in wideshots of the car. Submitted by Rikki
