The Hunger Games

Character mistake: In the first movie, Haymitch is their mentor. When they are eating dinner in the capital, Peeta says his mother said district 12 may finally have a winner, and she was talking about Katniss. What does he mean by "finally have a winner?" Haymitch had already won the games for district 12 in the past. So Katniss or Peeta winning wouldn't be the first for district 12.

Continuity mistake: When Katniss pulls back on her bow to take her first shot at the apples, she has a strand of hair hanging neatly by her eye. Camera cuts and this strand is now spread out and untidy. (01:32:30)

Continuity mistake: Just as Katniss is placed on her spot by Effie after walking up on stage, Effie grabs the microphone just as the camera changes. When the camera changes, she is no longer holding the microphone. (00:15:40)

Trivia: Isabelle Fuhrman, who plays Clove, originally auditioned for the role of Katniss, but was told she was too young for the part. When she was later called back for the role of Clove and succeeded, they had to make Clove incredibly skilled with knives to make her seem just as intimidating as Cato, Glimmer and Marvel.

Question: After the end of the 74th Hunger Games, Haymitch and Katniss are having a conversation on a balcony and after Haymitch tells Katniss she showed them up, the camera moves to a wide shot of them and during Katniss' response, something can be seen moving inside of her dress that looks similar to a hand, but both character's hands can be seen resting on the ledge. Do you know what it is? (02:09:36)

Answer: I watched this scene multiple times on YouTube. There is definitely something moving that probably is not supposed to be seen. I'd agree with your assessment that it looks like a hand. Most likely a film crew member is crouched on the floor performing some technical function during the filming. Just what it is impossible to tell. You should submit it as a "movie mistake."
