Continuity mistake: The very first shot with Kate Hudson ends with her shouting for her assistant Peg. Look at the position of her fingers on the glass, very close to the rim. She is still shouting in the reverse angle but her grip on the glass changed. (00:03:05)

Dark Glasses (2022)

Continuity mistake: The morning after the confrontation with the killer, there's a big red bag next to Diana's chair in the long shots, which vanishes in the closer angle, only to reappear in a later shot. (01:18:15)

Dark Glasses (2022)

Continuity mistake: Ispettrice Bajani is knocked down by the killer comically opening the car door in her face. She falls back, but in close-up she is face down on the asphalt and the gun is on the opposite side from the one you'd expect given the right-handed grip and the way the door opened. When they show the crime scene, her body is also suddenly close to her coworker's; technically we saw just her death and not what the killer could have done before leaving (we know he got her phone), but realistically there's no plausible explanation why he'd drag her several feet away and the eyewitness says nothing about the killer doing post-murder Feng Shui antics.

Dark Glasses (2022)

Continuity mistake: Diana is holding the calling card from Ispettrice Bajani in her left hand and her cane in the right hand when she gets the denim jacket. The close-up shows her right hand, with no cane, tucking the card in the jacket pocket. (00:39:30)

Dark Glasses (2022)

Continuity mistake: In the close-up of Diana kicking her client in the nads, the background shows the footboard of the bed behind them, but they are at the side of the bed, close to the bedstand, a moment before and after. (00:14:30)

Holograms - S1-E3

Continuity mistake: In the close-up of the opposition leader on the doorstep of the plane, the doorframe is in the shade. However, he climbs down the stairs in full sunlight. (00:00:40)

The System - S1-E2

Continuity mistake: Casey is having a chit-chat with the villain/stooge of the episode, playing dumb and pretending to have a ridiculous 'system'. As she says that whenever she loses she doubles the bet "three times in a row", her hair goes from behind the shoulder to the front of the shoulder. (00:16:05)

Ride Lonesome (1959)

Continuity mistake: The last night before the supposed arrival to Santa Cruz, Boone approaches Mrs. Lane. The moonlight (actually a rather obvious day-by-night) shines on her fully, but as the camera switches to a close-up, suddenly there are all sorts of shadows of foliage over her blouse. (00:57:20)

Ride Lonesome (1959)

Continuity mistake: When Ben reiterates "We're going to Dry Fork", Randolph Scott's hands are joined on the reins. Shot from behind, you can see by the arm position that they are apart. (00:20:45)

Hard Times (1975)

Continuity mistake: During the final fight between Street and Chaney, Chaney's shirt rests on the car's front in different ways between shots; you can tell for instance when they struggle by the car (a moment before the shot when Speed yanks Poe out of the way). The shirt shows its buttons; a minute later they are back fighting by the car and the shirt is folded the other way. (01:24:45 - 01:25:40)

Hard Times (1975)

Continuity mistake: The good guys are celebrating at a club after winning the fight with Gandil's man. Speed says "Hey, Chaney." Bronson and Jill Ireland are sitting down normally, but in the reaction shot on them, Jill Ireland suddenly has her arm on the back of the seat. (00:54:35)
