Corrected entry: During Marylin and Massey's wedding, Marylin is holding a bouquet of flowers. In the front view, she is holding them low by her waist. From behind she is holding them higher, by her chest.

jle

Correction: I didn't notice any difference. If there's one it's way to small to account for a mistake.

NancyFelix

Corrected entry: This is just an out-and-out wardrobe mistake by someone who didn't do their homework. Howard Doyle says he was a Texas A&M Aggie. But I or any other Aggie can point out something that's missing on his right ring finger - The Aggie Ring. Any Aggie, especially one from the football team, would likely wear that ring for the rest of their lives. I've seen some rings that have been worn smooth by former students.

Correction: Later in the movie Howard Doyle turns out to be a fake, that's why he doesn't have an Aggie Ring.

Corrected entry: When Nemo and Dr. Jekyll are in the pit when the bombs explode they are being attacked by the monster "Hyde" and the bombs blow a hole in the brick wall behind them. The wall disappears for a moment and then re-appears so they can escape through it. (01:37:25)

MCKD

Correction: The hole in the wall through which Nemo and Dr. Jekyll escape stays till the end of the scene.

NancyFelix

Corrected entry: When Skinner is invisible, he may not wear or carry anything on him, since these items remain visible. But the invisible assassin who attacks Sawyer in the fortress pulls a knife from out of thin air. (01:29:30)

Correction: When Sawyer's attacker "appears" the knife moves into the frame from below, not out of thin air.

NancyFelix

Corrected entry: When Simon is drawing Carol she had just come from the restaurant with Melvin and it was dark outside. But when they show Simon ripping the cast from his arm, the window behind him is lit like it is daytime. (01:49:30)

Correction: As one can see from the number of sketches Simon has been drawing all night. It's morning.

Seabiscuit (2003)

Corrected entry: When the family is reciting the poem "We Never Know How High We Are", it is identified as being by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow. It was really by Emily Dickinson.

Correction: The children think Red's father is going to read a poem by Longfellow, but he makes it clear by saying "Dickinson" right before he starts reading.

NancyFelix

Corrected entry: When Al Pacino needs sweet drinks and candy bars to help him relieve his diabetes attack he takes a candy bar from the tray and drops it then produces another from within his hands as if he never dropped it. You see it on a slow scan.

Correction: In one uncut shot Michael picks two candy bars, drops one of them, then opens the other one.

NancyFelix

Corrected entry: After the first wedding, the group is making their way across the lawn towards the receiving line. One shot shows them from behind, and then it cuts to view them from the front. In the scene from behind, David is missing. Matthew can be seen with his arm around Scarlett, but when they switch to the front view, David's arm is around Scarlett, and Matthew is walking ahead of them, with Fiona and Gareth.

Correction: The front view is taken at a totally different place, and there was been plenty of time for them to regroup (although the dialog that belongs to the later shot already starts in the previous shot, but this is more of an artistic tool than a mistake).

NancyFelix

Corrected entry: During the Senate hearings the senator with the white hair who is to the right of the main speaker can be seen taking off his glasses in one scene and then they are back on in the next, and then back off again in the next.

MCKD

Correction: The senator in question wears his glasses when he is reading or writing, otherwise not. Nothing wrong with the scene.

NancyFelix

Corrected entry: At Idgie's murder trial, the prosecutor says that when she threatened to kill Frank Bennett, it was in front of his hired man - the day she came to help Ruth leave Frank. But in that scene, we never see any hired man inside the house or out - if he was there, wouldn't he help Frank or at least come closer to where the action was?

Correction: The prosecutor said that he knew from Bennett's men (his friends, not hired men) that she had threatened to kill him. That he could have told them any time.

NancyFelix

Correction: Actually, there is a man (that presumably came with Frank) standing at the back door. You can get a glimpse of him while Idgie is being spun around on Frank's back. It's fast, but he's there.

The Godfather (1972)

Corrected entry: The infamous horse whose head is found in the bed of his owner, bloodied and mangled, has a white spot on it before it is chopped off. Later the white spot is gone.

Correction: The white spot is still there, just less visible because it's smeared with blood.

NancyFelix

Corrected entry: When Leala has her first kid the doctor pulls out the baby and says "It's a boy Oh Boy oy oy oy". When he turns and says "Oh Boy oy oy oy" his lips are not moving.

ShooterMcGavin34

Correction: If you look closely they do move, enough to let out an "oy oy oy".

NancyFelix

Corrected entry: When Charlie, Irene and Dicky are on the bridge, Whitey shoots Dicky in the back. Surely Charlie could have seen Whitey coming to the rescue from BEHIND Dicky?

Correction: Whitey is throwing from below the bridge and from the right. Charlie didn't necessarily see him.

The Godfather (1972)

Corrected entry: When Michael allows Kate to ask him just 1 question about his business, he walks up to his desk and places both hands on the desk. When the camera angle changes to a rear view of Michael he is seen just standing straight up, when it changes again to a front view he is leaned over with his hands back on the desk.

MCKD

Correction: In the shot from the back you see just Michael's head and part of the shoulders. That's by no means enough to tell that his position has changed.

Monster's Ball (2001)

Corrected entry: While in bed during the second & final sex scene, Halle's bra strap is black, but when Billy Bob returns with ice cream & they move out to the steps, her bra strap is now white.

Correction: Halle is wearing a necklace. From one angle this necklace looks a bit like a white strap, bit it isn't. Halle's bra is hidden under her gown throughout the whole scene.

NancyFelix

Corrected entry: When Leon has Pero on the floor with his keys, Pero gets a drop of blood to the left of his nose, this is visible on the close up, but then on the wider shot, it has disappeared, then back in the close up.

Correction: On DVD the blood is visible also in the wider shot.

The Full Monty (1997)

Corrected entry: When Lomper tries to kill himself with his car, you see Dave running back, opening the door and throwing Lomper on the ground; then closing the car door. Then Lomper insults Dave who throws him back into the car - this time the car door is open again.

Correction: Dave doesn't close the door after he pulls out Lomper. He drops him on the ground, turns around and leans against the car. In all shots the door is visibly open.

Adaptation (2002)

Corrected entry: When Amelia says "I love you too" to Charlie near the film's end, her lips do not move.

Correction: Her lips do move, not much though but they do.

Life is Beautiful (1997)

Corrected entry: When Guido drives off with Dora after the opera, his car gets stuck between two posts and her dress is torn as they try to get her out of the jammed door. They walk the rest of the way home (Dora is holding a pillow to her backside to hide the tear) and when they part ways at her gate, she turns and the viewer can see her dress is no longer torn.

Correction: The dress is still torn when Dora turns around. You can easily tell from the white gap that runs from top to bottom.

Bruce Almighty (2003)

Corrected entry: In the scene at the diner where Jim Carrey parts the soup. There are two coffee cups close to the wall. After a cut, one jumps to right in front of him.

Correction: When you look carefully (better backwards) you see that at the beginning of the shot where the cup has been moved Jim's hand is right at the cup, and he has obviously moved it there.
