Same Kind of Different as Me picture

Continuity mistake: While Jim is narrating his story, he gets to the point when his son was hit by a drunk driver. The line slows down, but when it cuts to a close-up of Renée Zellweger saying "Sorry Jim", you see the trays shift. Only, they are back in the exact same spot as before when the close-up is over.

Indian Horse picture

Continuity mistake: When Saul and "Nookmis" (his grandmother Naomi) leave on the canoe, there are several blankets/rolls of food between them. The pile reaches to about Saul's waist in the canoe. When Saul and Naomi continue their canoe trip the following morning, the pile of blankets/rolls between them is higher (almost to Saul's shoulders) and the colors/sizes look different (larger, even though they obviously ate some food).
