• Continuity: When Shelly confronts Natalie in the hotel room he throws two armfuls of clothes (on hangers) on the bed. The next shot shows only a suitcase with neatly folder clothes in it on the bed.
  
  
• Errors made by characters (possibly deliberate errors by the filmmakers): When Bernie plays craps, he is shown placing two stacks of chips side-by-side on the pass line. This is incorrect - a player's entire bet must be placed in one vertical stack. AFTER a point is established, a player make "take the odds" by placing a second stack of chips BEHIND the original pass line bet. A second stack of chips on the pass line next to the player's bet would be assumed by the crew to be a toke - a bet for the dealers.
  
  
• Crew or equipment visible: As the extras turn from the payout window when Bernie is in love and becomes "lucky", the dolly track can be seen on the floor and the actors are very consciously stepping through the rungs and looking down at it so they don't trip.
  
  
• Continuity: During the opening credits, the croupier of a roulette table which Bernie has cooled puts the win marker on (00) double zero. However, the ball is still in motion and hasn't yet landed in any slot.
  
  
• Continuity: During Bernie's first night with Natalie, his tie changes from looser to tighter.
