Corrected entry: After Ally follows the white arrows and discovers the painting supplies, we soon see her painting half nude on the upper deck. The painting she is working on looks like a project that has been in progress for a LOT longer than the hour or two Noah was gone for breakfast. It looks almost done.

Corrected entry: Before going into the restaurant to meet the girls, Miles is exclaiming how much he hates merlot, and that he will leave if they open a merlot. Well he also talks during the night about his "dream wine" he has saved up for a special occasion, a '61 Château Cheval Blanc from France. Well, that wine is is a merlot, mixed with some Cab Franc (another wine he supposedly hates.).
Correction: This is a Saint-Emilion; while it is based on both varieties, it is neither a pure Merlot nor a pure Cabernet franc. That's why Miles doesn't loathe it: the mix changes everything.
In the book, Merlot is the favorite wine of Victoria, Miles' ex-wife. So the reason Miles hates merlot has much more to do with his dislike of his divorce and what merlot now represents in his life. The 1961 Chateau Cheval Blanc was supposed to be saved for his 10 year anniversary with Victoria, so it makes sense that they might have picked it out together.

The Notebook (2004)
Corrected entry: I keep wondering, how Ally, a heartbroken teenage girl desperately hoping to get a letter from her summer boyfriend (Noah) managed NOT to check the mail herself for a whole year. Her Mom beat her to the mailbox 365 times?
Correction: Perhaps it was just a normal ritual that Allie's mother went out to get the mail everyday. If you watch the deleted scenes you see Allie sitting inside on the couch as her mom comes in with the mail and Allie is obviously crying. She asks her mom if there are any letters and her mom says no. It's not technically a mistake.
Correction: This is to show the viewers that since she's back in Noah's life, Allie has gone back to painting, which she really loves to do. As for the time, there are many talented artists that can accomplish what Ally has painted in the time allotted, and Ally is that talented and good at it.
