Character mistake: David Niven and his father are playing chess, and to checkmate his father, David Niven makes two moves, which you absolutely can not do - the only time you can move 2 pieces is when you move your castle and the king at the same time (castling), but you can't do that when you are in check.
Wuthering Heights (1939)
1 character mistake
Directed by: William Wyler
Starring: Laurence Olivier, David Niven, Flora Robson, Merle Oberon
Revealing mistake: In the scene where Cathy goes to Wuthering Heights to beg Heathcliff not to marry Isabella, she goes out the door and in the shot you can see they have not put up the photograph that represents outdoors. Instead there is just a wall and two cables hanging down.
Heathcliff: I cannot live without my life! I cannot die without my soul.
