When Dr. Cukrowicz talks to Mrs. Venable about Sebastian's purity, she is looking at him, but after the cut (just before he asks whether she wants to see Catherine) she is instantly looking away from him.

The doctor's hands change position when he tells Hockstader that he needs more time.

(At about 1:40:15) After Catherine discusses Sebastian's clothes, the image of her face suddenly jumps, revealing that two takes were spliced together.
Although set in 1937, costumes, hairstyles and makeup worn by Dame Elizabeth Taylor are all contemporary in 1959.
