Fracture (2007)

Continuity mistake: At the party, Nikki Gardner is walking and talking with Willy, asking him about what happened with a fellow associate of the law firm. Willy listens with exaggerated expressions, palm on his mouth; his fingers rest at opposite sides of his nose between shots. Similar blunder a moment later, when she starts saying that Burt never interviews juniors; his hand should be on his left cheek, but in the reverse shot it's not there; he touches it only a second later. (00:29:45)

Fracture (2007)

Continuity mistake: When Ryan Gosling massages his foot while turning down a bargain plea, his wristwatch shows it's 4:40. A couple of scenes later in the day, he is called into court for a 3 PM arraignment; he complains about having just 15 minutes to get there, and his wristwatch now shows it's a little after half past noon when he cleans the spilled coffee, and then a couple of minutes before noon when he rubs his eyes. (00:19:30 - 00:23:10)

Fracture (2007)

Continuity mistake: The stains on Mrs. Crawford's top change position between the time when she falls on the floor, seemingly dead, and the time when Nunally and the paramedic rescue her.

Fracture (2007)

Continuity mistake: When "Mr. and Mrs. Smith" are on the terrace and he asks her to dinner, the lighting of the scene changes dramatically between shots, to the point that you can also see the outline of Embeth Davidtz's fingers behind Billy Burke's neck through the robe in the frontal view, mismatched with the back view, robe collar in full shade and no hand anywhere near. (00:04:35)

The Judge - S1-E2

Continuity mistake: Ben joins Judge Carter Addison in his room in the first part of the episode. Addison is on the phone. Before he finally hangs up, he says, "Okay, I'll see you then."
