Continuity mistake: When Michelle tries to reach for the statue, in the close-up there's a dim light shining and a small souvenir license plate next to it. Also, there's a white bag to the left of the shoe. In the wide angle, the light is brighter, the license plate is gone, and the white bag is now to the right of the shoe.
