August: Osage County (2013)
1 continuity mistake - chronological order
Directed by: John Wells
Starring: Ewan McGregor, Meryl Streep, Julia Roberts, Chris Cooper
Other mistake: Barbara and Violet are talking in the car after returning from the funeral and all of the windows are closed, even though great effort was made to convey the fact that temperatures were in excess of 100°. They spend three to four minutes talking in the car and neither even breaks a sweat, when in reality, they could not have sat in a closed car in that kind of midday heat for more than 30 seconds or so without becoming incredibly uncomfortable.
Barbara Weston: It's the pills talking.
Violet Weston: Pills can't talk!
