Other mistake: When Will's mother steps into the bathtub where his father is already lying in, the camera switches between both persons and the water level (in relation to the bathtub edge) on each person's side is on a different height. Yet when both persons are shown, we can see that the bathtub edge is fully horizontal, so the water level should be the same on both sides. (01:25:00)
Big Fish (2003)
1 other mistake
Directed by: Tim Burton
Starring: Ewan McGregor, Helena Bonham Carter, Jessica Lange, Billy Crudup, Albert Finney
Continuity mistake: When the young Edward Bloom is in church and is growing at a quick pace, you see his buttons fly off and hit the woman in front of him in the back of the head. She then turns around and his buttons are back. (00:19:25)
Jenny: I loved a man who could never love me back. I was living in a fairytale.
Trivia: Helena Bonham Carter, who plays the grown up version of Jenny (from the town of Spectre), also plays the witch. She was at the time in a relationship with and eventually married director Tim Burton from 2001-2014.
Question: The end credits say that BLUE'S CLUES and DORA THE EXPLORER are referenced and the "References" in the movie's IMDb page say that Edward was watching them on TV, but when did he? I don't see clips of either show.
