28 Days

Continuity mistake: Saturday morning, when Gwen rolls over there is only a blue blanket on her and Jasper, in the shot from the top. Yet in the next side shot there is now also a purple comforter on top of them and there is also a blue pillow on Gwen's head. (00:02:20)

Super Grover

Continuity mistake: When Gwen comes into the bridal suite, between her front and back shots, her pink shoulder straps change position, the amount of champagne in the glass changes, the white cloth in the ice bucket isn't in one shot. The sunglasses on her grey bag disappear when she reaches into her bag and the bouquet with the ribbon, under her arm, changes too. (00:04:20)

Super Grover

Continuity mistake: At the reception, when Gwen holds the platter she starts to eat from it using her mouth to pick up the food, while Jasper is talking to her. In the next shot, while she's still picking up the food with her mouth, Jasper is now chewing a mouthful of food, but he didn't put anything in his mouth. (00:05:20)

Continuity mistake: While dancing at the wedding, in a wide shot Jasper throws his arms into the air, but in the close-up with his hands still in the air, he's surrounded differently by the guests. (00:05:55)

Super Grover

Continuity mistake: In the wedding reception, when Gwen and Jasper are drunk and dancing, they begin spinning in circles while holding hands. In most of the shots Gwen is holding onto the bow from the back of her dress. But in one shot, shortly before she falls into the cake, it magically appears on the back of her dress again. (00:06:20)

Super Grover

Continuity mistake: In Cornell's office, when Gwen speaks with him he's drinking out of a brown cup. In the next shot there's no cup in his hand, and he walks over to the window to get one. Confirmed on commentary. (00:38:10)

Super Grover

Continuity mistake: When Gwen and Jasper sit in the boat on the lake, her sunglasses and bread change positions in the close-up facing Gwen and close-up facing Jasper and the wide shot. In other shots facing Jasper and facing Gwen, their hand positions differ and the blue thermos handle changes position too. (00:46:00)

Super Grover

Continuity mistake: On the sign that Gwen wears, 'Confront me if...', the letters have different print in shots, even within successive scenes, when it's supposed to be the same sign around her neck. (00:53:00 - 00:56:55)

Super Grover

Continuity mistake: In the lounge at rehab, Gwen walks in with her white shirt sticking out at the bottom of her sweatshirt, but in the next full length shot of her, most of the white shirt isn't showing. Then in the next full length shot, it's all out again. (00:57:15)

Continuity mistake: When Gwen and Eddie are sitting in front of the TV, the ginger snap box on her right flips over on its other side between shots. (00:58:30)

Super Grover

Continuity mistake: When Gwen is watching the soap opera Santa Gruz, together with Eddie, in the front shots of the TV screen, you see a video cassette on the top of the TV with the heading "SONY". But, in the side shots of the TV screen, you see that the same video cassette is turned. (00:58:45 - 00:59:45)

Continuity mistake: When Gwen and Eddie both reach for the remote in the lounge, in the first shot he picks it up, has it in his hand and she's trying to pry it out of his hand, but in the next shot the remote is still on the box of baseballs and she gets it first. The books on the coffee table differ between these shots too. (00:58:45)

Super Grover

Continuity mistake: When Andrea, Gwen and Eddie watch the soap, in the wide shot of the TV we see the wall behind it. In the close-up of the TV, the screen is much higher in relation to the wall, the two notices on the right are not taped next to the window frame, the tapes lying on top of the TV differ and there is no book on the TV stand in the wide shot. (01:02:05)

Super Grover

Continuity mistake: When Gwen pulls a chair out for Andrea she's holding a cup and the script, and in the back shot the paper isn't folded. Yet in the front shot, it's folded in half. When Andrea sits, in the back shot she holds the sock monkey in her right hand, but in the front shot it's in her left hand. (01:17:35)

Super Grover

Continuity mistake: In the scene in which Gwen is re-enacting the soap opera for Andrea, she has gold dangly things in her hair. Notice in different shots the number on either side increases and decreases. (01:18:20)

Gwen Cummings: Yeah, I know I drink a lot, I know I do because I'm a writer and that's what I do, I drink. I'm not like those people out there, I can control myself! I can, if - that - if I wanted to, I could, if I wanted. I can! I can.

Trivia: On the first day, Dominic West (Jasper) was asked by the script supervisor, "Are you an alcoholic?" Well, Dominic thought to himself, "Crikey," then he felt incredibly self conscious, and so he replied, "Yeah, probably." Then the script supervisor said, "No, no! I meant your character."
