Plot hole: When Edward meets with his PI, he hands him pictures of Connie and Paul that were taken the day before. In these pictures, there are also pictures of her coming out of Paul's apartment wearing jeans and a raincoat. The day Edward "went" to Chicago, was the same day she and Paul went to the movies. The next day, when Edward met with his PI to get the info, she hadn't seen Paul yet. And the day Edward hired the PI to follow his wife, she had already come and gone from Paul's wearing another black dress. The PI would only have time to see them on the day of the movie trip.
Unfaithful (2002)
1 plot hole - chronological order
Directed by: Adrian Lyne
Starring: Richard Gere, Diane Lane, Olivier Martinez, Erik Per Sullivan
Continuity mistake: The mark that Paul writes on Connie's hips becomes darker when Connie is in the bathtub. The flower isn't even the same - it changes directions and there is a small line in between the pestles originally that isn't there in the bathtub scene.
Tracy: Having an affair is nothing like taking a pottery class.
Sally: Could be.
Tracy: No. It would start out like that, and then, um, something would happen. Someone, uh, finds out, or someone falls in love, and it ends disastrously. It always ends disastrously.
Question: In the final scene of the film Richard Gere and Diane Lane have their SUV stopped at a traffic light, and I've noticed that there's a police station directly to their right. This could have very well been a coincidence, but maybe it's not? Does anyone know if it signifies anything pertaining to the plot, for example, the dilemma of Richard Gere turning himself in vs. their decision to flee the country?
Answer: The light stays green for a while, but the car never moves. Then it turns red. To me, that suggests that Edward realises he has to stop the insane world of commandment-breaking that he and Connie are living in. One of my favorite movie endings.

Answer: That's exactly what it is meant to portray. If I remember correctly, the SUV's left turn signal is on as well, which only reinforces that idea that they have a choice to make. Right, turn himself in, left, flee the country.

Nope, just watched it and there is no left turn signal.
