Continuity mistake: When Michelle tries to reach for the statue, in the close-up there's a dim light shining and a small souvenir license plate next to it. Also, there's a white bag to the left of the shoe. In the wide angle, the light is brighter, the license plate is gone, and the white bag is now to the right of the shoe.

Back to the Future (1985)
Continuity mistake: When Marty tells George how to flirt with Lorraine, they both enter the diner and Marty sits on the back of the counter but disappears between shots, only to reappear later on. Also, the extras around him change, although they're all dressed in similarly colored clothes. Check a man in a plaid jacket next to the blonde girl in pink, who disappears when Marty trips Biff. This continuity havoc was due to the combination of Eric Stoltz scenes and new Michael J. Fox reshoots.
