Corrected entry: In the 'present day' scenes at the beginning of the film, we see the run-down theatre, filled with cobwebs and debris, while it's being used for the auction. However, in the scenes set earlier, we see that the theatre was consumed by fire; but there are no signs of this in the scenes set later.
Correction: There are nearly 50 years between the main plot and the framing story. The opera house could have been restored after the fire and fallen into disuse during World War One.

Corrected entry: Meg has a fringe which keeps changing length. It starts off short at the beginning of the film, it then gets longer, but by the end of the film it is back to being very short.
Correction: Considering that the plot covers at least a few months, there is no reason why her hair shouldn't have grown, and that when the bangs grew too long, she had them cut to the former length.

Correction: On the building it says "Opera populaire". This is not the Palais Garnier (the Paris Opera) but a fictitious opera house in Paris.
