Corrected entry: When Charlotte is in the hotel bar with her husband and Kelly the actress, her hair is switching between tucked behind her ear and hanging down in alternating shots. (00:36:20)

Corrected entry: In the beginning of the film, when Bob rides a taxi to his hotel just after coming to Japan, you can see the Japanese labels on shops and advertisements are reversed in some shots (like seen in a mirror) and correct in other. The reversed shots are those with a view from the taxi with Bob visible, which suggests they were reversed in post-production for some reason.
Correction: The only signs that are backwards are the ones that are reflected in store windows, across the street. For example, when we see the "ASAHI" sign it is backwards, but it is a reflection on the store's glass window.

Corrected entry: When Charlotte and Bob run away from the guys with the toy guns she is carrying a handbag. When Bob puts her on the bed later the handbag is gone, but then it's back on their next outing. (00:52:00 - 01:01:35)
Correction: When he is carrying her to her room she is holding the bag. In the next scene she doesn't have the bag, but that doesn't mean she didn't drop it in between scenes. The scenes are not continous so we don't know what she did once she entered the room, until she got to the bed.

Correction: Her hair is tucked behind her ear. but there is so much hair that it doesn't all fit. When you look from certain angles you can't see the ear. Some shots are from the back, and those seem like it is not tucked, but if you notice you can see that there is some hair that is tucked someplace.
