Continuity mistake: When Logan is talking to Laura while it snows, the amount of snow on Logan's shoulder in the close-ups remains unchanged all the time. However, later, when the shot changes to a wide angle, most of the snow is gone. Too fast for it to melt.

Continuity mistake: In the scene where he is fixing breakfast for his daughter, Robert Redford's shirt sleeves are down. When he goes to rescue the burning toast in the oven, his shirt sleeves are up and then they are down again. (00:15:00)

Plot hole: Chelsea says that when her deceased father gave her one of his paintings (now missing), he wrote an inscription to her on the back. She says she cannot prove that he actually did this other than he noted it in his journal and she does not know where the journal is. However, when Chelsea's father presented the painting to her on her 8th birthday, there were at least 100 adults present at her party who witnessed him giving her the painting, writing the inscription, and signing his name on the back of the canvas which was displayed to the guests. Any number of these people could be contacted and corroborate her claim.

Trivia: If you compare both times that the signature on the painting is revealed (in 1968 and in 1985), you'll notice that the "b" in Sebastian Deardon is different. You have to pause and make a screenshot of both to spot it.
