Continuity mistake: Minnie and Roman have Rosemary and Guy over to their apartment and Roman serves drinks to them as they sit on the couch. We can see the bottom of the silver platter that he uses to serve the drinks and it's totally dry, but in the next shot vodka blush is dripping from it onto Minnie's carpet. (00:25:10)
Continuity mistake: In the Castevet's apartment Roman spills the vodka blush on the floor and Minnie points at him with her left hand extended in front of her. In the next shot her hand has been lowered and is at the same level as her legs. The blue towel in her lap has also been moved to the left. (00:25:15)
Continuity mistake: In the Castevet's apartment Rosemary asks Roman, "Do you come from Australia?" and the lighting has been changed as a shadow appears on the left arm of the couch next to Guy that wasn't there two shots ago. (00:25:20)
Continuity mistake: Roman walks back to the bar after he spills the vodka blush on the carpet. There's a typewriter on a movable desk, to right of his easy chair, that has been moved since Rosemary and Guy walked into the apartment. The tip-off is the design on the carpet underneath the easy chair. (00:25:25)
Continuity mistake: Minnie asks, "Where are you folks from?" and we see the wall behind Rosemary and Guy is in shadow. No-one turned any lights on or off but, when they first sat down, the wall behind the couch was lit up. (00:25:45)
Continuity mistake: Rosemary and Guy eat dinner with the Castevets and, if you look closely, the candles on the dinner table 'melt' upward as the scene progresses. (00:26:40)
Continuity mistake: As Rosemary and Guy eat dinner with the Castevet's several yellow books in a pile in the bookshelf disappear as dinner progresses without anyone going near them. (00:26:45)
Continuity mistake: At dinner Minnie passes Guy a piece of cake on a plate. We see the cake when she cuts it and there's only white icing on top, but when Guy starts eating it there are now strawberries on top. (00:27:00)
Continuity mistake: At dinner Minnie passes Rosemary a piece of cake and the water in Rosemary's glass goes from half full to three quarters full between shots. (00:27:05)
Continuity mistake: The cake that Minnie serves after dinner is cut into six pieces. Rosemary and Guy each get a large peace and Minnie also eats a large piece, but if you look at the cake dish half of it is untouched but there's still an extra large piece lying there. (00:27:20)
Continuity mistake: Rosemary and Guy Joke around in their apartment after dinner with the Castevet's and Guy unbuttons and pulls his shirt out of his pants as he gets undressed. He walks off camera for few seconds and comes into view again with his shirt tucked back in his pants, only to take it off again a few seconds later. (00:29:30)
Continuity mistake: Rosemary puts a record on her turntable and we see a yellow garbage pail in front of a yellow high chair in the kitchen. After Minnie and Laura-Louise walk into the living room, Rosemary walks over to turn the record player off and we see that the yellow garbage pail is gone. (00:30:30)
Continuity mistake: Minnie and her, "good friend, Laura-Louise" come to the door while Rosemary is reading a book on the sofa. Rosemary puts the book down on the sofa and when she returns it moves about a foot to the right of where it originally was placed. The pillow on the right of the sofa has also been moved. (00:31:05)
Continuity mistake: Minnie gives her the necklace with the tannis root inside and Rosemary holds the chain between her thumb and first two fingers. In the next shot the chain is draped over her fingers. (00:32:15)
Continuity mistake: Guy is lying down on the sofa as Rosemary shows him the necklace with the tannis root inside. His right ankle is leaning over the edge of the sofa right next to the lamp. Two shots later Guy says, "Well if you took it you ought to wear it" and the lamp has been moved a foot to the left of his ankle. (00:32:50)
Continuity mistake: Guy is lying down on the sofa as Rosemary shows him the necklace with the tannis root inside. His right ankle is leaning over the edge of the sofa right next to the lamp. Two shots later Guy says, "Well if you took it you ought to wear it" and the lamp has been moved a foot to the left of his ankle. (00:32:50)
Continuity mistake: Rosemary doesn't want to wear the necklace that Minnie gave her so she puts it in a drawer in her dresser as she says, "Tannis anyone?". When she walks up to the dresser there's a red handbag on the right of it that's not there in the close-up shot as she looks in the mirror. (00:33:15)
Continuity mistake: The phone rings while Rosemary straightens up the living room. Guy answers it and after the conversation they both go back into living room. No one has gone near them but the pillow on the left of the window and the magazine rack below it have been moved. In fact they move three different times. (00:33:35 - 00:35:05)
Continuity mistake: Their phone rings while Rosemary is straightening up the living room. Guy answers it and we see that the lamp shade on Rosemary's dresser has been changed. A few shots earlier we saw the same spot when she says "Tannis, anyone?" and the lamp shade was larger. (00:33:40)
Continuity mistake: Guy answers the phone and gets shocking news about Donald Baumgart. If you look closely at their bed it's been moved about one foot to the right in relation to the radiator behind it. We saw it several shots before as Rosemary says, "Tannis, anyone?". (00:33:50)
Chosen answer: Roman Castavet is trying to get Rosemary's attention, and she says "Be quiet, you're in Dubrovnik, I can't hear you". That was in reference to the fact that Roman and Minnie were supposed to have gone to Majorca or Dubrovnik after she found out that Roman was supposedly dying (which was just a lie Rosemary was told so she wouldn't suspect them when her baby was taken). Roman and Minnie got in a cab and pretended to go to the airport, but never left town.
