Continuity mistake: When Mateo collapses on the staircase landing, Christy puts a coat under and around his head. The camera changes to a close-up of Mateo's upper body, and the coat is not there any more. (01:02:45)

Continuity mistake: When the pregnant Sarah watches the girls trick-or-treating Mateo there's a shot of her belly where she looks like she's almost due, but in later scenes it's much smaller, especially when she tries to keep Johnny from leaving the apartment and holds her hand against her absolutely flat belly. (00:42:40 - 00:55:00)

Continuity mistake: When Johnny and Sarah make love, Christy and Ariel have been sent to "Heaven" to have some ice cream. A group of four gays come in and wave at the girls, the third one a guy in a white jacket, and the last one a huge transvestite in a white dress. In the next shot, when we see the men in a mirror walking through the parlor, the transvestite is gone, also in the following wide shot into the room. (00:34:00)

In America (2002)

Continuity mistake: When Johnny tries to win the E.T. doll no ball flies in the final winning throw. We see it in Johnny's hand when he swings back, but he drops it outside the frame, because in the forward movement the hand is empty. This is especially obvious as the shot where the camera follows the non-existing ball is in slow motion. (00:25:00)

In America (2002)

Continuity mistake: In the scene where Johnny wins the E.T. doll the onlookers keep moving between shots. First Sarah moves from the counter behind her daughters, and later the crowd are either standing still and staring at Johnny or moving and talking to each other in alternating shots. (00:20:55 - 00:23:55)

High Noon (1952)

Continuity mistake: When Kane knocks Harvey out he falls against the wall. Then there is a close-up where Kane sits down, and Harvey's body has shifted by 90 degrees, but in the next wide shot it is again positioned as before. (00:59:00)

High Noon (1952)

Continuity mistake: After the wedding Will Kane lifts up his new wife and seats her on a sideboard. Then, after getting the kiss he asked for, he swirls her around and puts her down on the floor again. In this shot we can only see their upper bodies, but from the way the downward movement pauses while their heads are still almost at level, we can tell that she must have stepped on a stool or something before she touches the ground. (00:08:20)

Continuity mistake: When we see Aimée painting for the first time she is sitting at the kitchen table. When the camera cuts to a close-up of the picture it's quite different from the one in the wide shot. (00:23:20)

Continuity mistake: After they have arrived in Spain Lukas' new hippie friends have a picnic on the roadside. When Lukas sits down the items on the table move around or appear, like a pair of sunglasses and a steel mug in front of him. (01:21:45)

NancyFelix

Continuity mistake: When Lukas returns from the clinic Kati and Jochen have painted the walls in his room green, but when he lies down the walls behind the bed are white again. (00:54:30)

NancyFelix

Continuity mistake: When Lukas talks to Jochen about the effects of his medication on the voices he hears, the pill box on the bench keeps shifting around. (00:59:05)
