Revealing mistake: When they find the paper map sticking out the Iraqi soldier's bottom it is neatly rolled up and straight. One should imagine it being quite crumpled after having spent some time in this particular hiding place. (00:08:00)

21st Jul 2003
Guilty by Suspicion (1991)
Continuity mistake: In the scene where Dorothy kills herself she reverses twice. The first time she just touches the fence and stops. The second time, when she breaks through the fence and goes down the cliff, she comes again from a distance. Also some trees that were in the backdrop the first time are gone the second time.

Crazy in Alabama (1999)

Crazy in Alabama (1999)
Continuity mistake: When the black community marches to the pool in broad daylight you hear Taylor's father's speech at the poolside already in voice-over. Then it cuts over to the arrival at the pool, and it is totally dark. The plot doesn't suggest that the march was interrupted somewhere. (00:45:40)

Crazy in Alabama (1999)
Continuity mistake: When Lucille and Harry Hall drive up the mountains and stop at a vista point they drive across a stretched, rather even area. When the camera angle changes there is a hill behind the car, and there is no road or even dirt road where they came from. (01:03:50)
21st Jul 2003
Crazy in Alabama (1999)
Revealing mistake: Check the scene in slow motion when Peejoe's eye gets damaged by a stone flying off from a lawn mower. The eye doesn't get hurt in the shot when it is hit by the stone, and a close-up shot of the flying stone is reversed, i.e. it's actually flying into and not out of the lawn mower, in an angle where it couldn't be just popping up and down. (00:41:00)
