Visible crew/equipment: In the film George is backing his Rolls Royce up at Hugh's place, as he's doing that the film crew's reflection can be seen on the car. (00:08:00)

Continuity mistake: When George arrives at his hedonistic neighbor's house to join the orgy, he pulls into the driveway with the driver's side window of his loaner car rolled down. He gets out and goes immediately into the house, leaving the window down. A few minutes later he runs back to the car and gets in, the window is now closed. (00:48:58 - 00:51:15)

Thomas Thompson

Continuity mistake: During the seduction scene, as George and Jenny attempt to make love to Ravel's "Bolero", the record gets stuck. George throws a pillow at the record player, closing its lid and "unsticking" the record. But when George later turns off the record player, the lid is open again.

Suggested correction: The lid is open again, because Jenny reopened it when she got out of bed to replay the record.

Deliberate mistake: When George spies on his hedonistic neighbor down the hill with his telescope, the telescope is always level when it actually should have been pointing downward. Same when his neighbor spied on him - his telescope was always level also when it should have pointing upward.

Revealing mistake: After the waitress brings George his fresh cup of hot coffee, he immediate takes a sip, and it spills down his chin from being induced by dental anesthesia, instead of actually burning him.

Other mistake: There is no tea or any other liquid that spills out from the overturned kettle and cups, when Mrs. Kissell 'drops' the serving tray on the Reverend's coffee table.
