Continuity mistake: At the end of the movie, the priest hands Evita a goblet of wine. Before she can drink, she faints. the goblet drops to the floor but it is empty. (01:45:50)
Suggested correction: I'm sorry but the goblet is not empty. When she drops it on the floor you can see a small splash of a dark coloured liquid on the marble floor of the church. People may assume that there should be more visible liquid from the goblet but if Evita was the only one taking of the wine, then there would be only a small amount inside the goblet.
Continuity mistake: In the first scene where we see David Helfgott, there's a mark on his ring finger, probably made by a wedding ring. In that scene David isn't married.
Continuity mistake: Early in the film, Michael talks to Harry Boland on a boat. During this scene, a cigarette appears in Boland's mouth that was not in the previous shot. (00:40:40)
Continuity mistake: When Basquiat is painting on a sign with a horse on it, he puts a white line through the horse. When Warhol has a look at it, the stripe no longer covers the horse.
Continuity mistake: In the scene where Matthew Broderick leaves his wife's hospital room and has to sniff out which book she picked off the shelf while he is gone, you can see that she picked a green book. But when he comes back in he takes a blue book off the shelf, as she says that that was the correct one.
Factual error: Jerry Falwell and Charles Keating never knew each other personally in real life.
Factual error: When Gotti is outside kicking over trash cans while the surveillance photos are being taken, a series of 1990s vans are seen driving down the street, though the scene takes place in the 1970s.
