Continuity mistake: When Cathy talks to Sybil and the kids when she gets home after picking up Janice the leaf shadows on the car keep changing or disappear completely for some shots. It's similar in the scene where Cathy talks to Eleanor about homosexuality. (00:02:45 - 00:30:35)

Far from Heaven (2002)

Continuity mistake: In the scene where Cathy meets Raymond to say good-bye the time is reversed: When Raymond receives her call at his shop it's almost dark. When we see her walking up to the diner where he is waiting it's quite a bit brighter, and finally, when they talk in the street, the man who shouts at him to take his hands off her is standing in the sun. (01:06:40 - 01:08:55)

Far from Heaven (2002)

Continuity mistake: When the train with Raymond leaves the station there's a strange change of light: First the platform lights are on although it's only 4.30 p.m. and it looks quite bright when Cathy arrives at the station. They illuminate the platform brightly throughout almost the whole scene, but in the last shot on Cathy the lights are dimmed and the platform is totally dark. (01:37:05)
