The Graduate (1967)

Revealing mistake: Benjamin pulls into a gas station to use the phone near the end. There are an awful lot of tire marks where the car skids to a stop. Likely practice marks from previous takes.

Visible crew/equipment: When Ben's parents are trying to get him to go downstairs near the beginning, the camera backs up out of his room. On the left side is a shadow of some film equipment.

Audio problem: When Ben and Elaine go on their first date, they're driving really fast in his car and talking. When each of them talks, the wind noise is evident in the audio. This means they used the original audio on scene, instead of replacing it later (known as ADR). The cuts in the audio here are very noticeable.
