19 Blunders in Movies That Skipped The Trained Eye of the Filming Crew

It’s impossible to have a great time without an awesome script. Often, actors show their talent, taking what’s written and turning it into something even better. Many directors even encourage the cast to ad-lib in order to make scenes more authentic. On the other hand, sometimes actors forget lines, accidentally slip or simply improvise. Everything looks like it happens for a reason but the truth is that a lot of things happen as happy accidents.
While a mistake, a spur-of-the-moment decision, or even an injury ended up being too good to cut from the film, sometimes a little mistake seems to skip the trained eye of the filming crew and remains in the movie after post-production. No matter what it is, some of the unexpected moments or scenes turn out to be the most memorable of the movie.
Below are 19 mistakes that movie directors and producers went unnoticed but viewers didn't.
