The Devil Wears Prada

Factual error: The first time Miranda Priestly arrives in the office, everyone scrambles to make themselves look better. One girl uses her webcam to apply makeup, but the image shown in the computer monitor is as though the monitor is a mirror. Given that she is looking directly at the screen rather than at the webcam itself, her eyes should not be shown looking directly into the monitor, but rather just below (if it is a top-mounted webcam).

Factual error: When discussing the couture shows/designers that Andy will be seeing in Paris, Doug mentions "Nicolas Ghesquiere", the head designer for Balenciaga, a house that doesn't currently show Haute Couture.

Continuity mistake: When Andy and Miranda are in the limo in Paris, they pull up to the curb and there is a bunch of press waiting as Miranda opens the door. However, when the shot changes, it is not the same group of people - in particular, there is a balding photographer who should be standing right there but is nowhere to be seen. It all happens too quickly for that much change.
