Other mistake: When Jack and Rocky get on Ed Sheeran's plane, they are carrying 2 guitars. After the Moscow concert, before the 'song challenge', Ed says Jack wrote 'Back in the USSR' on a 3 hr plane flight with no guitar on the way to the show. (00:37:38 - 00:38:38)

Continuity mistake: During the interview, while sitting, his striped pants are unzipped for a few cuts, then they are zipped in later shots.

Continuity mistake: When Jack is at Deborah's California place talking to her on the couch her arm swaps from raised to lowered between shots.

Sacha

Other mistake: The manager mentions that he is going to be on the late show on Friday and the "Meetings of All Meetings" on Saturday. In that meeting, the mention of the late show happens when it was supposed to have already taken place on that Friday after going to Liverpool. While it was a dream in the movie, the appearance was still supposed to happen. In the deleted scene, the late show happened but then this would have to have been before Liverpool instead of after, since this was a possible motivation.

Revealing mistake: During the interview, you can see a monitor with the lyrics of "Something", even though he is supposedly improvising.

Suggested correction: This is a deleted scene. It is in the extras on the DVD but it is not part of the movie.

Peter Harrison

Continuity mistake: When Deborah tells Jack he must go to LA to make a ton of money his right arm is extended or not depending on the shot.

Sacha

Continuity mistake: Before Jack plays "Let It Be" for his parents, he talks to his dad who is holding a coffee mug. His left hand goes from holding the mug to down at his side in the next shot.

Continuity mistake: During the performance of "Help!" on the rooftop at the beach, the weather changes from cloudy to sunny (and vice versa) instantly in different shots.

Rocky: Love your work, man.
Ed Sheeran: Thanks.
Rocky: Especially the rapping.
Ed Sheeran: Really?
Rocky: No, I'm only kidding. No, leave it to the brothers, I say.

More quotes from Yesterday

Trivia: In the talk show dream sequence, Paul McCartney and Ringo Starr are introduced, and there is a shot of their two pairs of feet, one of which is barefoot. This is a reference to the cover of the album Abbey Road in which Paul is the only Beatle barefoot.

More trivia for Yesterday

Question: When Jack plays Let It Be the second line refers to "Mother Mary." Wouldn't that seem odd to an Indian family?

Answer: Considering there are close to 20 million Catholics in India and Jack seems to be pretty assimilated into English culture (his name is Jack after all), it probably wouldn't seem that remarkable.
