Continuity mistake: When Daisy, now in her 20s, is dancing for Benjamin at night, after their dinner, in a gazebo, she's dropped her coat right by her shoes approximately in the middle of the gazebo. They can be seen as dark silhouettes near Daisy's feet. Cut to a long shot, the pile has moved to her right, way off center. Cut back to a medium shot and it has returned to its first position.
