Corrected entry: When Toula sees the flier at college about Computers and Tourism, you can see the flier is attached to the bulletin board by a small green push pin. The camera angle changes when she goes to pull the flier off the bulletin board and it is now secured by a larger pin that allows her to rip the flier off the board.

Correction: Not true; it's the same pin all the way through. When Toula pulls the flier from the board, the starting angle of the shot means that a black mark on a sheet of paper behind the pin looks like an extension of the pin itself, but as the angle changes to follow Toula down the stairs it becomes evident that this is not attached and is in fact something separate.

Corrected entry: When Toula finishes her story about her childhood and the scene changes back to the restaurant, her shirt has changed from a white blouse she was wearing before the flashback to a brown sweater. (00:07:30)

Correction: This is meant to show the passing of time; Toula is shown in a variety of different outfits in the early scenes in the restaurant, meant to indicate how monotonous and boring her days are, and how she's constantly thinking about the same things.

Corrected entry: In the first scene where Toula and her father are riding to the restaurant, from the outside angle, you can see that there is no car behind them. As they are talking, the angle from inside of the car shows that there are a set of headlights in back of them. After they zoom out to the angle outside of the car, again there is no car behind them.

Correction: These are not headlights - they're shop and streetlights behind them, and are consistent in the close-up and wide shots.

Corrected entry: When the bridesmaids are preparing themselves to go to the wedding, they're seen painting their toenails, but when they put their stockings on, their toenails look unpainted. Then, when they put on their shoes (without taking their stockings off), their nails are painted.

Correction: In the first scene on the wedding morning, the bridesmaids are shown painting their fingernails - they're all sitting round the kitchen table waving their hands to dry them. We later see some people pulling on stockings, with unpainted toenails but with painted fingernails, then discarding the stockings and painting their toenails to wear with open-toed shoes. No problem there that I can see.
