Corrected entry: When Myrtle first buys the dog, it is very small, like a puppy. When they get to her apartment, the dog has grown substantially.

Correction: When we first see the dog in the apartment it's still a small puppy. We then see the dog grown bigger to show that some time has passed.

Factual error: Right after George Wilson kills himself with the revolver, the gun is seen falling into the fish pond in Gatsby's living room. Since Wilson shot himself in the head by placing the gun to the roof of his mouth, there is no possible way the gun could have flown so far away from his body, especially without getting bloody.
