10 Awesome Movie Scenes With Mistakes You Never Noticed
4. Armand's Wine Magically Refills As He Reacts To His Son Getting Married (The Birdcage)
Containing yet another priceless line delivery from one of the greatest to ever do it, 1996's The Birdcage boasts a scene involving Robin Williams' gay drag club owner Armand Goldman discussing his son's plans to get married to a woman.
Watching Williams brilliantly respond to his son's question of "are you upset?" with a razor-sharp "but let me tell you why" before eventually confessing to being fine with the whole "catastrophe" is a joy. But it's the star's necking of a glass of wine during that aforementioned exchange that actually leads to one hell of a continuity error mid father/son chat.
You see, despite chugging a full glass of white wine in response to Val's big reveal, that very same glass is then full (via Reddit) as Williams gets to his feet to refill it and read his boy the riot act.
It's pretty difficult to keep your eyes on anything other than Armand as he quips and cuts his way through this tense yet sweet discussion. And it seems as though the person in charge of continuity was likely doing the same when they should have been watching Williams' alcohol instead...
