Nobody expects a movie to be perfect, especially when hundreds of people are working on the same production over months or even years. Even so, it’s always surprising when an obvious mistake slips past the cast, crew, editors, and studio executives before a film reaches theaters. Sometimes it’s a disappearing prop, a costume that suddenly changes between shots, or a crew member who accidentally wanders into the frame. Most viewers never notice these little errors the first time around, but once they’re pointed out, they’re almost impossible to ignore.
