The Forgiven

Other mistake: Right before the "Y" in the road, it could be seen that Richard's speedometer was pointing to the far left, indicating that he was driving at a low speed, such as 5 - 10 MPH. When Richard was looking at the damage to the car, he said, "Smashed headlights, smashed bumper. Must have been going at a fair clip." The damage to the car, as well as Driss' death from the impact, seem severe at such a low speed. (00:07:40 - 00:16:09)

Deliberate mistake: David and Jo, each wearing sunglasses, are riding in the boat. When David says, "L'Afrique", buildings along the upcoming shore are reflected in his sunglasses. The camera shifts to Jo, also facing the shore, and buildings with more lights are reflected in her sunglasses. The camera then shifts to a rear view of David and Jo and it is obvious that what was reflected in their sunglasses was not possible. (00:01:40)

Trivia: Although Driss apparently stepped out in front of David's car and got killed (in the desert), it is ironic that "Moroccan drivers don't give way to pedestrians" [according to Mowgli-Adventures.com, "Driving in Morocco", Nov. 5, 2021]. (00:07:44)
