Continuity mistake: In the scene where Victor's mother is looking at his chalkboard in the attic, Victor's drawing of Sparky has the word "Alive" above it.

Mr. Rzykruski: Back home, everyone is scientist. Even my plumber wins Nobel Prize. Your country does not make enough scientist. Always needs more. You should be a scientist, Victor.
