Chitty Chitty Bang Bang (1968)
1 character mistake - chronological order
Directed by: Ken Hughes
Starring: Dick Van Dyke, Lionel Jeffries, Benny Hill, Sally Ann Howes
Revealing mistake: In the scene where Chitty is taking off from the castle, Caracticus looks down at the toymaker and Peter and says, "Bye bye". If you look closely, right in front of them, a boy runs across holding a stick he stole from one of the cavalrymen. He is waving it around and you can tell it's fake because it flops around like rubber. (02:16:50)
Lord Scrumptious: Time's up. Had your chance. Muffed it. Good morning.
Trivia: Julie Andrews was the actress chosen to play the part of Truly Scrumptious. However, as revealed in "Julie Andrews: An Intimate Biography", Ms. Andrews had grown tired of being typecast in playing the same type of roles in Sound of Music and Mary Poppins. She turned down the part.
Question: Why doesn't the Baron like the Baroness and keeps trying to get rid of her? I mean, if it wasn't for her and the law, he wouldn't get all the toys the Toy Maker makes, so why does he not like her?
Answer: He feels like she ruins all of his fun. He is kind of like a child and she is like his mother figure more than a husband and wife.
