The Chipmunk Adventure picture

Revealing mistake: When the chipmunks and chippettes and getting ready for the balloon race, Jeanette walks up to Simon and asks him what route to take to Bermuda. Pay attention to Theadore; he's supposed to be in front of Simon handing the chest of dolls to Alvin who is in the hot air balloon. After handing him the chest, he dusts his hands and moves his head a little while doing it. If you look at his head, it seems to cross behind Simon's even though Theadore is supposed to be in front of him. Simon's face may have needed to be seen, but still a mistake.

Yankee Doodle Dandy picture

Revealing mistake: In one of the last scenes of the movie when the Younger Generation visits George they drive into the scene in their old jalopy Chevrolet. The only problem is, from the front end shot, anyone can see that the body moldings and lines of the car body don't line up with the hood. Also the gas filler cap is visible, in the same shot, on top of the cowl right under the windshield, revealing they hung the front end of a Chevrolet on the front of a Model "A" Ford Deluxe Phaeton. The only car ever produced with a gas tank filler on the cowl right in front of the windshield - Model "A" Fords. Chevys had too much wood in them during the '20s & '30s. They all ended up being infested with termites. So when this movie was made just 10 or 11 years after they were all produced, no Chevys could be found for filming. Chevy Emblem is visible on the radiator shell, but it's a Ford Model "A". Also the four distinctive vent doors available on Chevys, from the day, are visible instead of the louvers of a Model "A" Ford hood. The Cowl Lamps (Parking Lights) are also Model "A". (01:52:00 - 01:54:10)

Victor/Victoria picture

Revealing mistake: Victor(ia) is supposed to be a male performer. Yet in the musical number closeups, the outline of her female cleavage is too obvious, in spite that she would be wearing bosom padding for her costume, and Patrons seated in the front row and the balcony would notice the difference.

Earth Girls Are Easy picture

Revealing mistake: In the scene when the aliens first enter Valerie's house, Mac and Zeebo find the fish tank and eat one fish each. The shot turns to Valerie's stunned reaction then back to the aliens, who are smiling widely, pleased with their stunt. If you look at Mac's teeth, you can see they are bright white up to his first molar, which is a give-away at his fake white fronts.
