Plot hole: Before Lustig dies he gives back Finn's scrapbook that got lost during their first encounter. In that scene there is no evidence that Lustig gets hold of the book, and the only explanation would be that Lustig picked up the stranded scrapbook later. This looks quite far-fetched to me, especially since Lustig was hiding in the dunes, and the scrapbook looked way to good to have spent a long time in the water. (01:35:20)

Continuity mistake: After looking at her portrait Estella folds it up and puts both ends in one hand not to have to look at it any more. When she gets up she is holding it with both hands again. (00:25:25)

Continuity mistake: In the scene where Finn paints Estella's portrait Mrs. Dinsmoor puts down the same empty glass twice. (00:24:45)

NancyFelix

Continuity mistake: When Finn comes back with Estella to draw her portrait Mrs. Dinsmoor's sofa is rearranged: e.g. a table with flowers is gone, the blanket covers the whole backrest now, and a stool is placed in front as a support for Finn's drawing. (00:22:50)

NancyFelix

Continuity mistake: The piece of wallpaper Mrs. Dinsmoor pulls off the wall for Finn to draw on is perfectly rectangular, in contrast to the oddly shaped one Finn actually uses. (00:23:05)

NancyFelix

Continuity mistake: On the shed where Joe parks his car after on his return from Mrs. Dinsmoor's place there's a sign "Joe Coleman Handyman" and a covering net which weren't there when when Finn came home after his encounter with Lustig. (00:16:20)

Continuity mistake: At the beginning of the film when Finn meets Lustig again at night he gives him a bottle of whiskey. Lustig takes long gulps and pours loads of whiskey over his injured ankle, but the bottle stays full throughout the scene. (00:09:20)

Continuity mistake: When Finn is being picked up by the police boat alternating shots show a buoy (which had a helpful sudden entrance as a hiding place for Lustig) either in front or at the side of his motionless boat. (00:12:00)

NancyFelix

Continuity mistake: When Finn goes back home in his boat after his first encounter with Lustig his clothes, which had been drenched before, are completely dry. (00:05:05)

NancyFelix

Plot hole: At the beginning of the film Lustig suddenly emerges from the water right in front of Finn. It's not possible that he could have been hiding in the shallow water without Finn noticing him. (00:03:40)

NancyFelix

Revealing mistake: When Finn draws a fish at the beginning of the film you see a dent already in the paper at the spot where he draws the eye. (00:03:10)

NancyFelix

Continuity mistake: Of the fish Finn is drawing at the beginning of the film there are two different versions in close-up. (00:03:05)

NancyFelix

Continuity mistake: At the beginning of the movie Finn is drawing standing in shallow water. He is holding his pen right at the tip, however, a close-up of his drawing shows a long part of the pen but no fingers holding it. (00:03:05)

NancyFelix

Continuity mistake: At the beginning of the movie, before Finn leaves the boat, he picks a pen from a box. In the next shot he is holding his scrapbook in the same way he was holding the pen box before. (00:02:10)
