Corrected entry: When Richard Sumner and Miss Watson are standing in the rain about to enter her building, she calls him darling or Charlie (it's hard to tell). Either one would be an error since they are not chummy at this point and his name is Richard. (00:46:40)
Desk Set (1957)
1 corrected entry
Directed by: Walter Lang
Starring: Spencer Tracy, Katharine Hepburn, Gig Young, Joan Blondell
Continuity mistake: When Katharine Hepburn carries the white carnations out of the elevator (which have just been given to her by Gig Young), they turn pink when she steps off the elevator and walks outside.
Bunny Watson: I don't smoke, I only drink champagne when I'm lucky enough to get it, my hair is naturally natural, I live alone... and so do you.
Richard Sumner: How do you know that?
Bunny Watson: Because you're wearing one brown sock and one black sock.
