The Enforcer (1976)
Continuity mistake: When they're demonstrating the LAW rocket, Callahan's new female partner is standing behind the instructor. He pulls her away before the rocket fires. The angle cuts, and she's back closer to the instructor again. If she was standing where she was the second time, she would've been hit by the exhaust (which is why he pulls her away).

It's a Wonderful Life (1946)
Continuity mistake: When Violet is leaving for New York, right before she says "I'm glad I know you George", the scene cuts. This is the same camera angle as before so the scene appears to be an edit splice. The jump cut is obvious. The reason for the rough edit is that a short sequence was cut where Violet asks George to run away with her to New York. It doesn't excuse the jump, but does help explain it.
