Suspect (1987)

Continuity mistake: When Kathleen goes to talk to Carl, her client, while he's in restraints she writes "You're deaf, aren't you!" on a legal pad then sits on his bed. She's holding her Sharpie in her hand, cap end up. When the perspective changes to Carl's, the Sharpie is cap end down. The shots go back and forth another time the same way.

Continuity mistake: When Nancy goes to the police station in her dream, she looks down at Rod through a window as he sleeps in his cell. The first shot shows him sleeping completely on top of the covers but when Freddy enters the cell, Rod is partially covered with a sheet.

The Family Stone (2005)

Continuity mistake: For the first few minutes of the film (as all the children are arriving and getting situated) Diane Keaton's sweater that's tied around her shoulders disappears and reappears at least twice. It's a contiguous scene with different shots so there would be no reason or time for her to remove it and replace it.

Poltergeist (1982)

Continuity mistake: Right after JoBeth Williams and Craig T Nelson joke with Dr. Lesh about not showing the tapes of their haunting on "60 Minutes" or "That's Incredible", JoBeth walks to the table with Dr. Lesh's flask in her hand. As she walks from the sink, there's a silver cap on it. When she gets to the table, the cap is gone. She couldn't have removed it out of sight, she had a coffee cup in her other hand.

Continuity mistake: When the family is leaving Uncle Earl's repair shop, they all put their seatbelts on at the same time. In the next shot, Dorothy leans over and gives Nate a kiss and her seatbelt is not on. The next shot is of the whole family and none of their seatbelts are on.

Dragonfly (2002)

Continuity mistake: When Joe is leaving the dinner party after talking to the grief counselor, he puts on his jacket and the collar of his sweater is flat underneath it. The camera cuts away and when you see him again his collar is standing up closer to his neck. Then the camera cuts away and his collar is flat under his jacket when it comes back to him again.

Continuity mistake: When the family comes into the mansion, they're wet from running in the rain. Eddie Murphy's lapels are sort of rumpled and his wife's hair is wet. By the time they get to the dining room, they're dry and Eddie's suit looks like it's been pressed.

Veronica Guerin (2003)

Continuity mistake: In the scene where Veronica is sitting at her computer working and her husband is upset with her, she disconnects her headphones from the stereo, pulls them off, and puts them around her neck. When she stands up and starts dancing to the music, they're on her head and she pulls them off again.
