Factual error: The newspaper pictures are too glossy to be newsprint.
The Princess Diaries (2001)
1 factual error - chronological order
Directed by: Garry Marshall
Starring: Anne Hathaway, Julie Andrews, Mandy Moore, Hector Elizondo, Heather Matarazzo
Continuity mistake: Just before Mia goes to smash her ice cream cone into Lana's chest, she takes a bite off the top of the ice cream. When she pushes it towards the camera, you can see that it hasn't been eaten at all.
Mia's deceased father: Courage is not the absence of fear, but rather the judgment that something is more important than fear. The brave may not live forever, but the cautious do not live at all.
Trivia: In the scene where Mia slips and falls on the bleachers, Anne Hathaway actually did fall. The director thought it was so funny that he decided to leave it in there. Notice how Mia and Lilly fall out of character and start laughing, but in the next shot they're immediately serious again as if nothing happened.
