Fans have been completely distracted by easy to spot editing error in Anne Hathaway’s latest film The Idea of You
You’ll likely add this blunder to your long list of ‘did you know’ facts about films.
It can’t be understated how much work goes into making films. It is a wonder that they get made at all since so many things need to go swiftly to go from concept to the big screen but it happens all the time.
Hundreds and sometimes thousands of people work on them, millions of dollars goes into loads of different people’s pocket and by the end you hope you have a half decent way to kill an hour or two.
Anne Hathaway’s latest film, The Idea of You, has left plenty of viewers distracted by an easy to spot error.
But with that being said, it is still shocking how some blunders and errors make it past so many eyeballs before someone noticed and changes it.
Anne Hathaway’s latest film, The Idea of You, has left plenty of viewers distracted by an easy-to-spot error in one of its scenes.
It’s not the most terrible blunder, but sometimes it can make you question how it wasn’t spotted immediately and fixed.
Hathaway’s character Solène is speaking to her love interest Hayes, played by Nicholas Galitzine, and the camera cuts back and forth between the two.
The blunder is simply Hathaway’s hair.
Not that it looks terrible or anything, but that between takes her hair has been moved, sometimes over her shoulder, sometimes pulled to the side and once you spot it, its impossible not to see it.
Due to scene cutting between camera angles, in quick succession her hair is seen in different positions.
This continuity error has got people talking on social media, with many remarking that someone on the set definitely dropped the ball.
Sharing the clip on X, one user wrote: “Anne Hathaway i love you but the lack of hair continuity in this scene is driving me insane.
“The only reason I noticed this is bc i just watched an interview with Zendaya re challengers where she talks about how meticulous she is with her hair continuity,”
Defending the actress, one user wrote: “To be fair there’s tons of people on set being paid to make sure this doesn’t happen.”
This continuity error has got people talking on social media.
And another person defending the editors wrote: “Script supervisors fault actually, they are responsible for continuity. Editing team can only work with the shots provided.”
However, despite these takes, some users claimed to not even see an issue with it and argued that in real life their own hair shifts in position all the time.
What do you think? Worst cinematic blunder of all time, or the most realistic depiction of long hair in a movie – you be the judge.
