Beauty and the Beast

Continuity mistake: When Beast is grieving in the rose room before Gaston shows up, the chair has a missing piece of fabric on the left side. When Gaston shoots the arrow, the fabric is now fixed.

Continuity mistake: In the opening song sequence, there are three blonde girls singing about Gaston next to a water pump. But in a front shot of Gaston walking through the city as they sing, it is a barrel, not a pump, that they are gathered around.

Continuity mistake: There are 2 different designs for Gaston's chair that alternate all the time: one covered in dark fur with V-shaped antler armrests, and another with a lighter coloured fur with S-shaped antler armrests. Also, both antlers on each side of the backrest differ slightly.

Continuity mistake: When Maurice first enters the castle you can see that the carpet leading to the staircase is very long. When Belle enters the carpet is shorter.

Continuity mistake: When the three girls first see Gaston, the fountain is pouring loads of water into the bucket. A shot later the water has suddenly stopped and the girl in red has the bucket raised up to her waist.

Continuity mistake: When Mrs. Potts puts Chip into the cupboard, the handles change style and colour: from gold to black. Also, the carvings on the wood become blue painted for a brief shot.

Continuity mistake: Beast bursts into the West Wing, uses the magic mirror and puts it on the table. A shot later it has vanished. Note the shape of the rose between both shots and you'll notice that it's not an opposite angle. The mirror is definitely gone.

Suggested correction: I really don't see much of a difference here. The sign is always green, and it doesn't turn brown. Sure, the tone looks a bit lighter in the second screenshot, but the colour is still meant to be the same.

There's a picture proving my point, but I'll reword the mistake and submit a picture with better quality.

Continuity mistake: When the three girls watch Gaston, the wall on their right has a chipping on the painting with visible bricks underneath. In the wide angle, the wall is fixed and the bricks are now visible in the second section of the wall.

Sacha

Continuity mistake: Belle walks by the main street and the stalls, signs and number of people change between the close shots and the wide angle; check a blue pig-shaped sign called "Le jamon": a shot later it's round and brown colored.

Continuity mistake: During the Gaston song, when the three girls sing, the chippings on the walls behind and to the right change style between shots.

Sacha

Continuity mistake: After rescuing his father, Belle passes a cloth around his body and finally rests her hand on his father's chest. A shot later she is placing her arm on his back and the cloth is gone.

Sacha

Continuity mistake: After Beast lets Belle run away there's an aerial angle of her horseback riding and Beast howling with both gates open. In the close-up the right door is closed.

Question: The timing of the Beast's curse has always confused me. The movie states he has until the rose wilts completely to break the spell, and that said rose will bloom until his twenty first year. So was the Beast's deadline his 21st birthday or would the rose begin to wilt on his 21st birthday and he would then have only a little under a year (judging from how much time appears to pass in the film) till all the petals fell off?

Answer: The Rose started wilting at The Beast's 21st birthday and could have presumably started wilting years before the first time we saw a petal fall off. Given the fact that Lumiere stated that they were living with the curse for 10 years, prince Adam could be 23-24 years old at the time of the original movie,13-14 at the time of the curse, and the Rose could have been wilting for two to three years. This is my best guess given the approximate age of Prince Adam in the ripped up portrait before he was the Beast.

Answer: I would assume it would be until his 21st birthday, as that is really the 21st year since his birth. After his 21st birthday he'd be older than 21.
