Prophecy picture

Escape from Alcatraz picture

Other mistake: In the scene where Frank Morris first starts to dig using the nail clipper, he stands up in his cell, turns off the light then bends down to start digging, however the only light coming into the cell would be on his right, but the shadows from his head and bars appear to be from a light directly behind him.

The Black Hole picture

Other mistake: Whilst Captain Holland, Lieutenant Pizer, Dr. McCrae, Bob and Vincent are riding in the ship's transport system, the tube comes to an abrupt end due to meteorite damage. Since the tube is outside the ship, there would be no air left for the humans to breathe, nor could they survive in outer space completely unprotected for long. Plus, they would't be able to hear Bob's statement that they should try the main corridor. (01:17:40)

The Villain picture The Villain mistake picture

Other mistake: Handsome and Charming head out of Snakes End (followed by the newlyweds) and begin their long journey. It then cuts to Cactus Jack before he begins the journey, and at the start of this shot as he places Whiskey's bit, we can see the signpost with three wooden arrow signs and the hillside behind him. This is the same location where Cactus Jack lays trap number seven, named "the tunnel in the hillside," on the next day during the journey; noticeable when Handsome and Charming arrive. (00:28:35 - 00:54:45)

The Lady Vanishes picture

Other mistake: Miss Froy writes her surname in window condensation on the train before she is abducted, where it's supposed to have remained visible for hours, which is dubious in high summer. Then it all of sudden disappears as they go through a tunnel, but why would going through a tunnel cause condensation on inside of train window to all of a sudden disappear?
