Revealing mistake: Part of the concept of the film is that, save for Jesus and his disciples, Manhattan is deserted for one day. However, during the baptism scene in Central Park, you can see a horrified man in the lake on a boat, desperately trying to row out of the scene.
Godspell (1973)
1 revealing mistake - chronological order
Directed by: David Greene
Starring: Victor Garber, David Haskell, Katie Hanley, Lynne Thigpen, Merrell Jackson
Genres: Musical
Continuity mistake: In the scene before the king and servant story, the people throw a lot of junk on one of the followers. If you look closely, you can see the accordion used in the scene before piled on him twice.
Jesus: Consider the lilies of the field. They don't work. They don't spin. Yet I tell you - Solomon in all his splendor was not attired like one of these. Now, if that's how God clothes the grass, which is here today, and tomorrow is thrown unto the fire, will He not all the more clothe you?
