  • Crew or equipment visible: At the beginning of the movie, we are looking through the eyes of Lump Hudson when a member of the other team approaches him. Before the ball is snapped, the crew is reflected in the other player's helmet.

  • Continuity: The Professor's hands and glasses change when he sits down after recounting a poem of Edgar Allen Poe to Marva.

  • Errors made by characters (possibly deliberate errors by the filmmakers): Professor Dorr says the University of Mississippi is in Hattiesburg. It's actually in Oxford. The University of Southern Mississippi is in Hattiesburg. While it may be Dorr's error, it seems unlikely that Mrs. Munson, a Mississippi native, wouldn't notice.

  • Errors made by characters (possibly deliberate errors by the filmmakers): Dorr pretends to lead a Renaissance music ensemble. The first time we hear them pretending to be rehearsing, the boom box is playing Boccherini.

  • Continuity: During Professor Dorr's recitation of Poe at Mrs. Munson's tea, the amount of wax that has dripped down from the candles behind him changes from shot to shot.

  • Continuity: The Professor refers to the "lovely... morn" minutes after Ms Munson exchanged "good afternoons" with the sheriff.

  • Errors made by characters (possibly deliberate errors by the filmmakers): Professor Dorr explains that his ensemble plays Renaissance music. Later, He says the music comes from the Rococo period. The two styles are completely different, and separated by a span of about 150 years.

  • Continuity: The second time Lump is tackled, it is by the large white player. When he falls, the skinny black player walks by.

  • Continuity: When Mrs Munson is sitting in front of the painting at the very beginning of the movie, we see her knitting in an over-the-shoulder-shot and she wraps the wool round her fingers. When the camera changes, she does it again, although the wool actually is already wrapped around her hand.
