Continuity mistake: On the sign that Gwen wears, 'Confront me if...', the letters have different print in shots, even within successive scenes, when it's supposed to be the same sign around her neck. (00:53:00 - 00:56:55)

Continuity mistake: When Andrea, Gwen and Eddie watch the soap, in the wide shot of the TV we see the wall behind it. In the close-up of the TV, the screen is much higher in relation to the wall, the two notices on the right are not taped next to the window frame, the tapes lying on top of the TV differ and there is no book on the TV stand in the wide shot. (01:02:05)

Continuity mistake: When Gwen and Eddie both reach for the remote in the lounge, in the first shot he picks it up, has it in his hand and she's trying to pry it out of his hand, but in the next shot the remote is still on the box of baseballs and she gets it first. The books on the coffee table differ between these shots too. (00:58:45)

Continuity mistake: In the lounge at rehab, Gwen walks in with her white shirt sticking out at the bottom of her sweatshirt, but in the next full length shot of her, most of the white shirt isn't showing. Then in the next full length shot, it's all out again. (00:57:15)

Trivia: On the first day, Dominic West (Jasper) was asked by the script supervisor, "Are you an alcoholic?" Well, Dominic thought to himself, "Crikey," then he felt incredibly self conscious, and so he replied, "Yeah, probably." Then the script supervisor said, "No, no! I meant your character."

Continuity mistake: When Gwen and Jasper sit in the boat on the lake, her sunglasses and bread change positions in the close-up facing Gwen and close-up facing Jasper and the wide shot. In other shots facing Jasper and facing Gwen, their hand positions differ and the blue thermos handle changes position too. (00:46:00)

Trivia: As demonstrated in the film, Equine therapy is really used in quite a few drug/alcohol rehabilitation centers in the U.S. It's used to reveal things about the patient's personality and what they do in frustrating situations. (00:37:25)

Continuity mistake: At the reception, when Gwen holds the platter she starts to eat from it using her mouth to pick up the food, while Jasper is talking to her. In the next shot, while she's still picking up the food with her mouth, Jasper is now chewing a mouthful of food, but he didn't put anything in his mouth. (00:05:20)

Continuity mistake: When Gwen comes into the bridal suite, between her front and back shots, her pink shoulder straps change position, the amount of champagne in the glass changes, the white cloth in the ice bucket isn't in one shot. The sunglasses on her grey bag disappear when she reaches into her bag and the bouquet with the ribbon, under her arm, changes too. (00:04:20)

Continuity mistake: Saturday morning, when Gwen rolls over there is only a blue blanket on her and Jasper, in the shot from the top. Yet in the next side shot there is now also a purple comforter on top of them and there is also a blue pillow on Gwen's head. (00:02:20)

Revealing mistake: Three shots after Ragetti inserts his wooden eye at the Port Royal shore, two pirates, one with long hair wearing a cap and one bald, each holding a torch in their right hands, are running and screaming. In the background, the pirate who is sliced in the belly by Will in the later shot, is seen running forward towards Will, who's partially seen on the left in the background, but Will has NOT even left the blacksmith shop yet and the woman running in the background has had her dress' color altered so as not to resemble herself in the later shot. We see the two screaming pirates later in the foreground of the same shot, before Will crosses the sword and axe overhead. (00:30:55)

Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl mistake picture

Continuity mistake: When Elizabeth's maids lace up her corset, obviously both the back and front laces were pulled very tight, as this is the reason for her discomfort and eventual lack of air. After Jack rescues her, as she is on his shoulder we see the two sides on the back of her corset are far apart and the laces in between extremely loose. Yet, when she is lying on the dock, Jack slices the front laces on her supposedly constricting corset so she can breathe again... (00:16:25)

Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl mistake picture

Revealing mistake: When Jack rescues an unconscious Elizabeth, as he reaches to lift her, his wet white shirt is translucent. From just above the elbow we can see the pink of his skin showing through the sleeves, but above that it's very apparent that he is wearing another garment under the white shirt. Yet when he's on the dock, there is no other garment under his shirt, which is still translucent enough to see the two tattoos on each of his shoulders. (00:16:00)

Revealing mistake: Aboard Interceptor, Jack calls out, "Monkey!" as the monkey jumps onto the broken mast leading to the Pearl and Jack runs after him. In the very next shot of Elizabeth, who's trying to move the broken rigging from the hatch that Will is trapped under, the coloring is off in this one shot. The color of her dress, for example, is not vibrant, it is brown. This is visible on the region 1 DVD and on videotape. (01:29:25)
