Revealing mistake: Near the beginning of the film, when Clang is outside the Beatles' flat on his delivery bike, you can plainly see the rope tied to the front of it giving him a pull as he starts to ride off. In the next shot the rope is gone.
Help! (1965)
1 revealing mistake
Directed by: Richard Lester
Starring: Leo McKern, Eleanor Bron, Ringo Starr, The Beatles, George Harrison, John Lennon, Paul McCartney, Victor Spinetti
Continuity mistake: In the scene where John, George and Ringo are about to take their seat in the restaurant, look closely at the mirror on the wall. You can see Paul dancing with Ahme. However, when John then asks, 'Are you eating too, Paul?' and the shot cuts to Paul, the original belly dancer, not yet replaced by Ahme, is the one dancing.
Trivia: At many points in the movie, the music playing in the background are slightly different versions of the song "A Hard Day's Night." This was the title track from the Beatles previous movie.
