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
Continuity mistake: Truly crashes into the pond three times: first when the kids are playing in the road and she takes them home, second on the day of the picnic when she says she has nothing else to do and will go on the picnic too, and third at the end of the film when Potts finds out he is rich. In the second of these three, when Mr. Potts carries Truly from her car in the pond, the end of the ribbons on the back of her dress gets soaked in mud, but when you see her again at the beach there is no sign of the dirt.
Childcatcher: I don't trust a man who makes toys in a land where children are forbidden.
Trivia: The License plate on Ms. Scrumptious' car is CUB 1, Albert "Cubby" Broccoli was the producer of the film....
Question: Where was Truly was going prior to going in the duck pond the first two times? She changes her plans easily.
Answer: It seems those times were occasions when she was on her way to see her father, Lord Scrumptious, at his candy factory, or wherever he may be (like at the Potts' wargaming with Grandpa).
