Robert Duvall in The Apostle (1997)

Goofs

The Apostle

Edit

Continuity

When Sonny first goes to see the church, he leaves his car door open. When he returns, the car door is shut.
Just before putting his car in the lake, when Sonny gets back in the car and puts it into gear, his brown leather bag is clearly visible on the passenger seat. When he jumps out, it is not on him, nor was there time to toss it out the window, but he has it on him when he climbs through the grass to get to the road and during the subsequent walk.
During the last scene, the radio DJ is shown without his glasses, but is wearing them an instant later.
When The Apostle is in his car at the accident scene his window is closed. As he gets out of the car and closes the door, the window is partially open.
In the bulldozer scene (Chapter 30), Troublemaker has stood up after praying. People are scattered around him. The shot changes immediately to where these same people are standing in a defined circle holding hands singing around him for a few seconds, then it reverts back to the first shot where the people are scattered around him. (1:47:02 through 1:47:16).

Factual errors

It would be virtually impossible for a radio signal to get the 400 miles from Bayou Boutte to Fort Worth during the day. This scene would be more believable at night when there might be a skip.

Audio/visual unsynchronised

When the car takes off to go into the river, the tires squeal on a dirt road.

Boom mic visible

When the Apostle E.F. is kneeling with the troublemaker in front of the bulldozer.

Character error

When E.F.'s ex called the police (and the "Bayou Boutte" dispatcher supposedly answered), she would have actually called the Fort Worth P.D. homicide division, to inform that Sonny (aka E.F.) is in Bayou Boutte, Louisiana, since the incident is under Ft. Worth, Texas' jurisdiction. Also Bayou Boutte is quite likely too small for its own police department, let alone a homicide division.
