The Artist

Factual error: When George is backstage and behind the screen, watching the movie premiere, the image in front of him is of a left hand drive car. Since the scene supposedly takes place in the country of Georgia, where left hand drive was the standard, the image as viewed from behind the screen should be reversed and so make the car appear to be a right hand drive. (00:04:35)

Factual error: The airplane that is used in the film they are watching at the start is a Ryan ST. The Ryan ST had it's first flight in 1935.

Factual error: Driveway cut outs with tapered edges were not extant during the time period of this film.

Continuity mistake: George is in his dressing room, holding a tissue in his right hand. When the shot changes, the tissue has moved to his left hand.
