Continuity mistake: Right after Lucy buys her pictures, she walks on the plaza and takes off her coat, carrying it on her arm. When she starts fainting, George catches her and starts carrying her. Both of her arms are in clear sight and the coat is nowhere to be seen. The shot changes, and then her coat is again wrapped around her right arm, squished between their bodies.

Cecil Vyse: I have no profession. My attitude - quite an indefensible one - is that as long as I am no trouble to anyone, I have the right to do as I like. It is, I dare say, an example of my decadence.
Question: Why did Cecil tell Charlotte to give him the sovereign? Wasn't he owed only 15 shillings by Freddy? A sovereign's 20 shillings so was he gonna give Freddy back the other 5 shillings? I don't understand, please explain.

Answer: He was owed 15 shillings and a pound (in those days) was 20 shillings. Since he was owed most of a pound, he thought, "just give me the pound and call it even." He wasn't going to give change.
