Continuity mistake: During Astaire's big number "Top Hat, White Tie and Tails," he produces an invitation on stage, sings about it, then crumples it up, and tosses it away. It must be nearby on the stage, but when we finally see the entire stage, the invitation is gone.
Top Hat (1935)
Directed by: Mark Sandrich
Starring: Fred Astaire, Edward Everett Horton, Ginger Rogers, Erik Rhodes
Madge Hardwick: My dear, when you're as old as I am, you take your men as you find them - if you can find them.
Horace Hardwick: What kind of plane?
Jerry Travers: One with wings.
Dale Tremont: I dropped up from the room below where I've been trying to get some sleep.
Jerry Travers: Oh, I'm sorry! I didn't realise I was disturbing you. You see, every once in a while I suddenly find myself... dancing.
Dale Tremont: Oh, I suppose it's some kind of an affliction.
