Continuity mistake: When Lombard tells Vera "Don't you think it's strange that there's never a third person present when anything unpleasant occurs?" his cigarette is in the left hand, and switches instantly to the right in the next shot. (01:03:35)

And Then There Were None (1945)
Revealing mistake: The 'bee' on the window - immobile in the first shot - is just a dummy with static wings. (01:00:45)

And Then There Were None (1945)
Continuity mistake: When Emily Brent is found in her room, the light of the area changes between shots - just look at the direction the legs of the first responder cast a shadow at. Also, the position of his feet is different; he already almost reached the door in the previous shot, and is 2 boards behind in the new one. (01:00:10)

And Then There Were None (1945)
Stupidity: The trail of yarn supposedly unveiled by the cat - besides the 'small' detail that comes down with perfect timing that the murderer couldn't have planned - has also a pattern that is only meant to imitate what happens when a cat plays with a ball of yarn; in reality it couldn't have such a precise trail, and yet retaining loops that wide and neat. (01:00:00)

And Then There Were None (1945)
Continuity mistake: In the scene preceding Emily Brent's death, Judge Francis J. Quincannon moves his glasses around, creating a couple of obvious discontinuities, first when his hands from distanced become joined at the very beginning, and then at the bottom of the stairs when he waves Blore to stay put. (00:58:50)

And Then There Were None (1945)
Audio problem: Blore, just wearing his pants and tanktop, razor in hand, opens the door between his room and Lombard's. Louis Hayward and Roland Young have an exchange ("Whatchya doing here?" "You called me, didn't you?") with barely half of the words mouthed, the audio does not match. (00:58:20)

And Then There Were None (1945)
Continuity mistake: Blore is shaving. Suddenly something occurs to him and goes to the door calling Lombard. He has still bits of shaving cream all over his cheek; despite being still crouched by the door, after a brief cut to Lombard approaching, his face (in particular the sideburn who had still abundant cream on it) is practically clean. (00:58:00)

And Then There Were None (1945)
Continuity mistake: Vera is in the kitchen serving boiled eggs to Emily Brent. Vera calls Emily on saying something suspiciously akin to Mr. Owen's ideals; Emily walks away and Vera turns around. The continuity is broken by the position of Vera's left hand, horizontal in the first shot, vertical in the next. (00:55:50)

Roman J. Israel, Esq. (2017)
Question: I wonder if someone can figure out what is Roman muttering to himself during the opening of the movie, or rather the opening of "3 weeks later" flashback. Close captions on Netflix say; "PC section...374.962.Burglary...in the first degree." Is that what he says? It does not appear to be a correct reference to the California Penal Code, and from what I heard later on, most other references to specific articles appear to be spot-on.

And Then There Were None (1945)
Continuity mistake: In the kitchen scene where Lombard reminds Vera the ominous bumblebee line, Miss Brent's position in front of the cupboard changes continuously. (00:55:10)

And Then There Were None (1945)
Continuity mistake: The survivors unlock the dining room after Rogers' death. The spare key lies on the tray with the Indians in a different position between shots; askew at first, facing the camera then. (00:54:50)
1st Jun 2020
And Then There Were None (1945)
Continuity mistake: Blore, Lombard and Armstrong get out of the house to check on the knocking noise. As they stare at the door of the shed that keeps slamming in the wind, their reciprocal distance greatly varies; they are closely together, then Armstrong is at distance - to allow the camera to get a better shot -, then he is touching shoulders with Lombard. (00:52:30)

And Then There Were None (1945)
Continuity mistake: The judge looks with a certain apprehension at the doctor clutching menacingly his poker; he holds the pipe in both hands, but in the next shot both hands are at his sides on the couch. (00:46:15)

Saint Seiya: Awakening
Character mistake: The in-fight taunt of Black Andromeda says "These chains will turn into snakes that will drain your HP." Nothing of the sorts happens in the game - no snake related effects or appearance, and most importantly, it's not an attack with a HP drain effect.
1st Jun 2020
And Then There Were None (1945)
Continuity mistake: When Blore, Lombad and Armstrong come out of the backdoor and look at the shed from distance, the doctor's robe is tied with one end particularly long that sways in the wind and dangles at the very least touching the knee. After they see the hatchet and wood on the ground and begin bickering, both ends are roughly balanced and don't reach the knees. (00:52:40)
1st Jun 2020
And Then There Were None (1945)
Continuity mistake: During the dinner scene with Rogers drunk, the Judge tries to bait him into confessing at least the original crime; the candelabra behind him project two shadows in different directions in the two waist shots. (00:44:35)
1st Jun 2020
And Then There Were None (1945)
Continuity mistake: A drunk Rogers serves dinner to the guests; first one is the Judge, and at the cut the tilt of the serving dish changes significantly. (00:44:00)

And Then There Were None (1945)
Continuity mistake: The mixer is shown close when Dr. Armstrong 'turns down' the drink. It is full to the first horizontal notch, but when a few seconds later the judge reads his name because of the slip, the same bottle is in frame and about an inch emptier. (00:42:15)
1st Jun 2020
And Then There Were None (1945)
Continuity mistake: When the secret vote is introduced, there's a small sketch with the doctor 'reluctantly' having a glass of liquor. He puts the glass down with the left hand, turned into the right hand at the cut. (00:42:15)
1st Jun 2020
And Then There Were None (1945)
Audio problem: When Vera plays the piano, the Italian dub uses a different version of the song, with a much higher tempo and that does not sync well with the scene - plus, she'd have to be a world class pianist to execute it that way. (00:40:00)
