Continuity mistake: Judge Cannon's magical handkerchief misbehaves right at the beginning of the dinner scene when he tries to make everyone else confess; it's not even in sight when he gets his tea, but pokes out a great deal when in close-up starts admitting his own guilt. (01:01:35)

Continuity mistake: Mario Adorf is walking in the hallway at the beginning, to the right, towards a large vase. The camera is on the stairs, and the vase casts a shadow to the right. In the middle shot that follows, the vase casts a shadow to the left and half of the space is taken by a shadow cast by the column that was completely absent earlier. (00:03:05)
