Corrected entry: When Elizabeth tells Hundert about their trip to Greece she addresses some stereotype tourist activities, like drinking too much Ouzo or having shish kebab near the Akropolis. The latter is the Turkish skewer version and certainly not typical fast food in Athens in the mid seventies, at a time of extreme tension between Greece and Turkey. (00:12:45)

Continuity mistake: When Sedgewick Bell arrives at the school he steps out of the car with his school bag in his hand. The camera cuts to Hundert's class, then back to Sedgewick, carrying no bag. (00:15:10)
William Hundert: Sir, it's my job to mold your son, and I think if.
Senator Bell: Mold him? Jesus God in Heaven, son. You're not gonna mold my boy. Your job is to teach my son. You teach him his times tables. Teach him why the world is round. Teach him who killed who and when and where. That is your job. You, sir, will not mold my son. I will mold him.

Correction: In the US, "shish kebab" is a fairly generic term for any skewered meat. There is no evidence that the restaurant she ordered the food from called the food "shish kebab." Rather, it's only her vague recollection of the day, hazed by the ouzo no doubt, that could have lead her to fall back on the more generic "shish kebab," rather than the likely more appropriate "kalamaki."
