Visible crew/equipment: After the math class scene, we see Marcus from behind as he walks toward the bulletin board to sign up for the talent show. In the upper right corner of the frame, there are someone's feet/black shoes and edge of a garment dangling from above. If they don't belong to a crew member, perhaps they belong to Ellie, her part in the scene having been cut out.

About a Boy (2002)
1 visible crew/equipment mistake
Directed by: Chris Weitz, Paul Weitz
Starring: Hugh Grant, Madison Cook, Nicholas Hoult, Rachel Weisz, Sharon Small, Toni Collette
Continuity mistake: When Will meets Rachel, right after Rachel says "Mine's Ali...Alistair", her arms keep changing positions. First she has got them on the table, then on her legs, and then on the next shot they're on the table again.
Lindsey's Mum: Are we having duck? Delicious.
Trivia: In the beginning of the film, Marcus says he would be able to take care of his mum (Toni Collette) if he were Haley Joel Osment. Toni Collette played Haley Joel Osment's mother in the The Sixth Sense.
