Directed by: Roman Polanski

Revealing mistake: When Gittes visits the orange grove and crashes into the tree, you can see that a steel plate has been placed around the tree to protect it.
Visible crew/equipment: When Gittes goes to Evelyn's house before she tells him the truth about her and Katherine, one of her servants opens the door and you can see in that precise moment the shadow of the camera on the door jamb on the left and on the wall next to the stairs while approaching to the actors. (01:47:23)
Continuity mistake: At 1972 Canyon Drive before Jake meets Katherine Cross, the dried flowers in the vase behind the sofa have been rearranged since we saw them at the beginning of the scene. (01:53:20)
Gittes: How much are you worth?
Cross: I have no idea. How much do you want?
Gittes: No, I just want to know what you're worth. Over $10 million?
Cross: Haw oh my yes.
Gittes: Why are you doing it? How much better can you eat? What can you buy that you can't already afford?
Cross: The future, Mr. Gitts! The future! (02:02:15)
