Continuity mistake: Ken Branagh and Emma Thompson go into a restaurant, where they greet the owner as Ray. Ray then tells them that the place has no drinks licence and no music because Al the piano player is sick. Minutes later Branagh exclaims "What's going on? I can't believe it. No booze, and Ray's sick."

Dead Again (1991)
Plot summary
Directed by: Kenneth Branagh
Starring: Emma Thompson, Kenneth Branagh, Andy Garcia, Derek Jacobi, Wayne Knight
Kenneth Branaugh plays a present-day journalist who ends up caring for a mute amnesiac played by Emma Thompson. They visit an antique dealer who can hypnotize people, and, through hypnosis, she is able to speak. The dealer regresses her into a previous life where she recalls a couple from post WWII L.A. - the man a conductor and the woman a concert pianist. After an argument one night, the woman is murdered with a pair of scissors in her own bed. The conductor is convicted of the crime and executed. Both are reincarnated - but as the opposite gender - and karma intervenes to bring the soulmates together and set the universe right.
Turns out, the hypnotist is the son of the conductor's housekeeper and the pianist's true killer. Emma Thompson's recalled memories lead him to try and kill her again, and he dies when he lands on a pair of scissors Emma Thompson had sculpted.

Trivia: Not a mistake, but worth looking for. Roman Strauss's mansion in the film is the same house used as Wayne Manor in the Batman TV series, with Adam West.
