Continuity mistake: At the end of John Pithiou's dinner speech there is a close-up on the black butler. In that close-up, the collar of his vest flutters, shaken by the fan activated by the other slaves in the background. In the previous shot he was in the same hunched over position, but the fan had no such effect - you can tell by the position of the slaves in the background that he is standing in a different spot even if he was not supposed to move.
