Continuity: Placement of Stern's arm around one-armed worker at Schindler Warehouse.

Factual errors: Schindler was never awarded the Golden Nazi Party Badge, and thus couldn't have sold it to save more Jews. In any event, all but a few of the badges were made of gold-plated brass.

Factual errors: The Golden Party Badge (Goldenes Parteiabzeichen) that Schindler is holding is the 'large' military version and not the civilian type that he would have had, if he had been awarded one.

Continuity: When Schindler goes to kiss the Jewish girl, he puts his hands on her shoulders. In the next shot, he pulls his hands away from her cheeks.

Continuity: When the boy is caught by the Nazi troops, he drops his case next to his feet. When we cut back to him, the bag is a meter away.

Continuity: When Schindler is reprimanded for kissing the Jewish girl by the SS officer, the SS officer picks up his cup twice in the same sentence.

Revealing mistakes: At the train station, when Schindler saves Itzhak Stern from being sent away, an officer is seen flipping through pages of names, but all the pages are exactly the same.

Continuity: The position of Amon Goeth's arms as he is talking to Helen in the basement before he beats her.

Continuity: when Schindler is in bed with his wife and talking, his head is resting on her. But in the next shot, when she leans up/turns over to talk to him he is a lot further away from her.

Anachronisms: Yerushalayim shel Zahav was not written until twenty years after WWII

Continuity: When the kid is painting the letters "DIREKTOR" for the first time, a serif font is used. In a subsequent shot the word is shown in a san-serif, bolder, almost stencil-like font.

Anachronisms: The bottle of Hennessy cognac as seen in the movie is the new shape released in 1990s. The original bottle shape was taller and had different label.

Continuity: When Goeth attempts to shoot a Jewish worker for not producing enough hinges during his shift, first we see his service automatic (a Luger) jam, followed by a small automatic he produces from his pocket. However, as he walks away, he drops a revolver (not previously shown, and rarely, if ever, carried by SS personnel).

Revealing mistakes: Just after the little boy is held up to pull down another icicle from the roof of the train, the camera angle switches to the exterior and pulls back to show the train going by with no trace of snow or ice anywhere else on the train except right over that one doorway.

Continuity: fc In the early scene when Oskar is getting ready to go out you see him tuck his handkerchief in his suit pocket. Clearly visible is a Nazi party pin on his lapel. Shortly thereafter he is shown pinning it to his lapel as a finishing touch.

Crew or equipment visible: When Schindler and Stern negotiate with the Jewish investors outside the ghetto, 'Steven Spielberg' is reflected on the rear window (his jacket is blowing in the wind)

Continuity: In the opening sequence when Schindler is preparing for the party (dressing up, getting money) the shape of his hands (and nails) differs from shot to shot.

Anachronisms: Czechoslovakia did not exist in 1945. The state had been divided up and Brunnlitz was in the Protectorate Bohemia and Moravia (now the Czech Republik)

Continuity: When the train of women is pulling into Aushwitz, ramps are already in place next to the track. They then disappear, and are put in place when the train stops.

Audio/visual unsynchronized: In the scene were Amon is picking a servant, he moves to a Jewish girl that does not raise her hand and asks her to get in his car. When he tells her to speak up, his voice is heard but his lips are not moving.

Crew or equipment visible: The scene inside the cellar between Oskar and the maid, when she faces the camera head on, there is no light coming from the right, yet as the scene progresses and the shot tightens, somebody turns on a light which becomes visible as they cut to her left and her head tilts forward.

Continuity: When Oskar first meets Amon over lunch, there is an officer who pours water twice, from two different angles.

Continuity: Oskar sits down at Amon's table for lunch, getting ready to eat, with the camera looking from behind Amon. When they change angles you can see him already chewing the food.

Continuity: The opening sequence in the train station, one can clearly see that there is no metal cover where the guy is setting up the table, yet as they begin to take names, it seems that the action is happening in a different place.

Miscellaneous: When the doctor goes into his secret stash of fine liquors, there seems to be a ray of light inside. How is that possible since it must be inside a wall?

Continuity: The sequence of Oskar interviewing for a secretary position opens with a wide shot showing furniture in the room that is covered while the walls are being painted. Once it cuts to a close shot, the furniture is gone.

Factual errors: When Amon Goethe is going to shoot the Jewish worker his gun supposedly jams. In actuality the gun is unloaded or else it would have ejected a cartridge every time he re-cocked it. Being empty it only clicks when he pulls the trigger, but it's functioning perfectly.

Anachronisms: The Billie Holiday song heard from a radio is not the wartime recording stated on the end credits. It's a later version from the 1950s.

Factual errors: When Oskar Schindler takes his meal he uses his fork with the right hand and his knife with the left. Not being left-handed this would be a very unusual thing for a German man to do.
