The American

When Jack and Mathilde first meet outside the cafe, the scene has two shotsone facing Jack, the other facing Mathilde, switching between the two as they talk.

When the camera is facing Jack, Mathilde has her sunglasses in her hand, but when the camera is facing Mathilde, the sunglasses are on the table.

The position of the sunglasses on the table also shift during the course of the scene.

When Jack and Clara go to the restaurant, they order still water and the waiter brings them a bottle of Aqua Panna.

But as they talk and the camera angle changes, the bottle on the table becomes a green San Pellegrino bottle (sparkling).

When the angle changes again, the bottle is again an Aqua Panna.

When packing the bullets in the candy box, and when handing over the candy box to the assassin, Jack doesn't wear gloves.

Given how careful he's shown to be, one would expect him to leaving fingerprints, especially given that he knows the gun will most likely be left at the scene.

When Jack receives the Swedish newspaper clipping the text following the headline has several grammatical and punctuation errors indicative of it being written by someone whose native language is English.

One of several examples from the article is that in Swedish homicide investigation is a single word - "mordutredning" - not two ("mord utredning").

Apart from the news article in the newspaper clipping being written in very bad Swedish, the body of the text is about a suicide bomber being caught on a tram in Gothenburg, Sweden.

They called the rifle a Ruger M14.

M14 was a infantry rifle in the 1950's, was not made by Ruger, and shoots a.

308 (7.

62 X 51).

The correct rifle is a Ruger Mini-14.

When Mathilde first fires the rifle she shoots about a foot to the left of her metal sunflower target.

To correct this she should have taken the SIDE cap off the telescopic sight and turned the 'windage' screw half a turn clockwise moving the point of impact to the right.

Instead she removed the TOP cap and adjusted the 'elevation'.

This adjusts the up and down point of impact.

Her second burst should have still missed the target from the same aiming point.

After Jack assembles the rifle, he pulls back the bolt to cock the rifle and dry fire it.

However with an empty magazine in the rifle, as it was, the bolt would lock in the rear position and not fully cock for dry firing.

When Jack and Mathilde go to the river to test the new rifle, she asks, "Muzzle velocity?" Jack answers, "About 360 miles an hour.

That's including about 20 miles an hour off with the sound suppression.

" A ballistics-savvy person like Jack would have answered in "feet (or, meters) per second.

" Toward the end of the film when Jack approaches the river to meet Clara, a stuntman can be seen driving the car.
