Other mistake: When Sebastian and Ronald are fighting by the roadside, you can see the same man in red shorts and a black shirt, with a white jumper tied round his waist run past them about four times. (01:23:00 - 01:24:10)
Revealing mistake: In the swimming pool scene between Annette and Sebastian, a positioning mark can be seen quite clearly on the floor. [The swimming pool used was freezing cold, about 40 degrees, so Ryan Phillippe and Reese Witherspoon were freezing (look close and you can see Ryan shivering), and so were the camera crew, that they didn't repeat the shot, so the positioning mark was left in.] (00:28:05)
Kathryn: So I assume you've come here to make arrangements, but unfortunately, I don't fuck losers.
Trivia: Contrary to what some people think, Ryan Phillippe and Reese Witherspoon didn't meet while filming this movie; they were already dating. The director, Roger Kumble, asked Phillippe if they could have dinner with Witherspoon and offer her the role of Annette.
