Continuity mistake: The way Charlie's necktie is tied and hanging varies during his first party. Sometimes, it is a little loose around the neck but the knot is tight and askew. Other times, the tie looks like a typical neat one. Interestingly, the tie is mostly loose and crooked at the beginning, but quite neat and typical after he eats the laced brownies (but goes back to loose and tilted). (00:26:08 - 00:28:03)
Continuity mistake: The position of Beth's truck facing her motel room (106 or 706?) changes during the time she is talking to Holly.

Continuity mistake: The objects on the desk at Lax's interview with Herman change several times. Sometimes, the tripod is closer to the center of the desk, about a foot away from the file folder, but other times it is closer to where Lax is sitting and one leg is almost touching the folder. The angle of the file folder and distance to the edge of the desk also varies. The Styrofoam cup switches from one side of the desk to the other. (00:17:07 - 00:18:20)

Continuity mistake: In the scene near the end of the movie where Ellen Miller asks Robert Miller to lift up his shirt, and then slaps him in the stomach with a newspaper, we see that his right shoulder suspender is properly positioned, however in the next shot from behind him his suspender over his right shoulder appears to be twisted 180 degrees. As he turns to walk into the inner bedroom the suspender is once again back to a proper fit.
Continuity mistake: In the parking garage scene, when Lindsay initially parks the sign states "Reserved For Walter Deeds." When being towed his name on the sign disappears. (00:06:30 - 00:10:45)
Continuity mistake: The first time they go to the beach together, Alain is sleeping while Stephanie is swimming. When she wakes him up with her potent whistling, he has his hand on his belly that touches the bathing shorts'upper band in the first shot, but the hand is in a different position above his bellybutton in the wider angle. (00:43:05)

Continuity mistake: Dinner at Forestier's home, and Georges Duroy does not know which knife to use to eat. The asparagi in his plate are across the small pie in the wide shot, and in close-up they are arranged entirely on the side without his intervention. (00:08:20)
Continuity mistake: Throughout the film, John Travolta's hair changes back and forth and back and forth from being really really really short to just really short.
Continuity mistake: Tom walks into Anthony's memory. Anthony is sitting by the pool next to a table with two glasses of beer, which are 1/3rd empty. A few minutes later the memory is replayed, but this time both beer glasses are mostly full. (00:49:50 - 00:58:35)
