Continuity mistake: When June enters the boys' bedroom at nearly 1:00 am, she turns on their light. In the closeup, she flips the light switch, which is already in the up position, and the light turns on, but in the next shot, the light switch is in the down position. Then, when June exits their bedroom, in the wide shot, the light switch is in the down position, but in the closeup, the switch is in the up position so she can flip it down (off). (00:06:35)
