Trivia: When Danielle is with Gustave in his painter's studio, just as Gustave says, "Five days in the stocks," there's a painting of a noblewoman on the easel beside them; the noblewoman left her gown and jewelry at the studio for the painter to consult while completing her portrait, and it is that noblewoman's gown Danielle borrows to impersonate a courtier. Then, while Danielle is at the royal court quoting Utopia to Henry, right after she says, "but that you first make thieves and then punish them," in the next shot, the older noblewoman at the center is the one from the portrait; she's played by Amanda Walker, the wife of Patrick Godfrey who plays Leonardo, also in this scene. Amanda was to have a line in this scene (in the goldenrod script version), commenting on Danielle's gown being identical to her own, but that line was cut. (00:21:45 - 00:29:20)

Other mistake: When Queen Marie tells Henry he was born to privilege and it comes with specific obligations, Henry says, "But marriage to a complete stranger never made anyone in this room very happy." Then, King Francis demands, "You will marry Gabriella by the next full moon." The problem is Princess Gabriella of Spain is named Princess Gertrude in the credits. (00:34:05 - 01:57:15)

Revealing mistake: When the Grimm brothers' carriage pulls away from the castle, after Danielle's story is told, at the top right side of the screen, there is a moving white vehicle driving toward the left side, at 01:56:42 (viewed on a tablet). Then, just before the screen fades to black, a blue car with a white top (and a couple more nondescript), can be seen parked in front of the building with a brown roof, at the bottom of the screen towards the right, at 01:56:57. (01:56:35)

Continuity mistake: When Prince Henry first approaches Leonardo da Vinci and then chases after the thief, the horse he rides on is dark bay in color and has no markings on its face.

Continuity mistake: At the manor, when Leonardo da Vinci hugs Danielle and says, "Think of it as a belated wedding present, Your Highness," the distinctive wood chair (more are all over the manor) is under the side window behind him, also visible as Danielle takes Henry's hands and pulls him towards the alcove with the two windows. Next shot, however, that chair is gone from behind Danielle (where the side window is) and there is only a wood table in front of the center window (fullscreen version).

Continuity mistake: After Marguerite tastes the chocolate, when Henry walks over to Louise and Paulette, Louise holds an abundant armful of corn ears in the shot facing the women.

Visible crew/equipment: In the market scene when Prince Henry almost sees Danielle and she throws the chicken at him, because they didn't want to injure Dougray Scott, who plays Henry, they put a glass plate in front of him so the chicken would not harm him. If you pause it right after Danielle throws the chicken, you can see the reflection of the chicken's legs towards the right of the screen (fullscreen version has a better view). (00:52:00)
