Deliberate mistake: When Harry is seen stepping outside of his hotel the evening after he arrives in Paris, behind him is the familiar Eiffel Tower gloriously illuminated against the night sky. Frequent Paris visitors or residents might recognise the hotel as the Plaza Athenee - to see the Eiffel Tower from there you'd need to be looking in the opposite direction from what we're shown.
Something's Gotta Give (2003)
1 deliberate mistake - chronological order
Directed by: Nancy Meyers
Starring: Keanu Reeves, Jack Nicholson, Diane Keaton, Frances McDormand, Jon Favreau, Amanda Peet
Revealing mistake: Right before Jack Nicholson sees Diane Keaton naked, there are shots of Keaton getting undressed. There is a close up of swollen feet that you can see are obviously not Diane Keaton's. The far shot shows her with smaller feet and legs.
Harry: I've never seen a woman that age naked before.
Julian Mercer: You're kidding.
Harry: Hey! We're not all doctors, baby.
Trivia: The movie title is inspired on a Johnny Mercer song from 1954, that's why Keanu Reeves' character is named Julian Mercer.
