George Brent and Loretta Young in They Call It Sin (1932)

Goofs

They Call It Sin

Edit

Continuity

(at around 1h 2 mins) A newspaper headline proclaims "Chorus girl freed of blame". However, Marion was not a chorus girl; she was the pianist.
The first name of Enid's father as shown on telegrams from Jimmy is different from the name shown in the newspaper article about Jimmy and Enid's wedding.

Incorrectly regarded as goofs

Dr. Travers enters the operating room of a hospital, stands next to the patient, and talks to the doctor while wearing ordinary clothes and without having washed.

It's obvious the operation/procedure has been completed, as the others in the room have their masks off and the sheet was drawn up to Ford's chest just before Travers entered. At this point, it's no different than visiting a patient in a hospital room.
When the first telegram Jimmy sends to Enid is shown, it is signed "Jimmy". When the second one he sends is shown, it is signed "Jimmie".

It's likely the telegrams were dictated to the telegraph operators, which would account for the different spellings of the homonyms.

Revealing mistakes

(at around 1h 4 mins) About 19 seconds pass from the time Marion waves to Tony Travers as he is parking the car on the street to the moment when Jimmy opens Marion's door. That's not enough time for Tony to have gotten out of the car, enter the building, and make his way up the stairs (or elevator) to Marion's floor.
