Continuity mistake: At the beginning of the song 'a little priest' Mrs. Lovette is holding the curtain and opens it. When the camera switches, the curtain is fully closed and she's just holding a little bit of the curtain.

Question: In the scene where Johnny sings the song "My Friends", it seems he is singing "and we're togever" rather than "and we're together". Is this a colloquial pronunciation from the time period of the movie?

Answer: It's a common colloquialism in England, particularly with London and East Midland accents - people often pronounce 'th' as 'v'. It's poor english but very common, and certainly would have been common in the lower classes in London at that time.
