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.

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.
George Webber: If you were dancing with your wife, or girlfriend you knew in high school, and you said to her, Darling, they're playing our song, do you know what they'd be playing?
Don: What?
George Webber: Why Don't We Do It In The Road. Fuckin' hell kind of era is that?
Trivia: Bo Derek's character in this film is Jenny Hanley - the same name as the presenter of the children's television show "Magpie".
