Revealing mistake: When Buddy love and Stella are standing at the lookout above LA, the background is obviously a poorly done painting.

The Nutty Professor (1963)
1 revealing mistake
Directed by: Jerry Lewis
Starring: Del Moore, Kathleen Freeman, Stella Stevens
Continuity mistake: In the first scene with Stella and Buddy Love at the Purple Pit, Stella's eye shadow is bright blue and extends above her eyebrows. When the scene moves to the hill above the city, her eye shadow switches between nonexistent and a light green. (00:46:00 - 00:50:45)
Professor Julius Kelp: Well, just don't do something, sit there.
Trivia: While the principal of the school is going through the list of everyone performing at the prom, he mentions a comedy duo, and says "Oh, I thought they split up." A wry reference to the earlier break up of Martin & Lewis.
