There are numerous references by the lawyer and by leading counsel to British and/or UK law, which does not exist. English law and Scottish law are different and therefore the reference should only have been to English law. There are also several references to 'discovery' which is an American legal term. The English equivalent would be disclosure, and the English legal team would certainly have known this and used the correct terminology.

When Lipstadt is in her London hotel room, the shipping forecast is on the radio. We see the time on the clock as 12.42am. The shipping forecast does not air until 12.48am and is never early.

(At 26m24s) Deborah Lipstadt (Rachel Weisz) cannot sleep, even though it is 42 minutes after midnight, so she goes for a run. When leaving her hotel, she passes by the hotel Doorman. There are no Doormen at The Athenaeum Hotel at that time. Their shifts are twelve hours long, from 8:00 until 20:00. At (1h39m34s) the same goof happens at the end of the film when she goes for a run during the televised Newsnight interview, which would have been aired at sometime after 22:30.

The Judge is shown at 1h 28min writing 'Judgment' on a piece of paper. In normal English usage one would spell this word 'judgement', but in English legal terminology it is always spelled 'Judgment' when referring to a formal court finding.

During the visit to the Auschwitz Concentration Camp it is said that the Germans blew up the ruins of the gas chambers one week before the end of World War II. That would have been end of April/beginning of May 1945.

Auschwitz was liberated by the Soviet Red Army on January 27th, 1945.

The wrong BBC logo (1997) is used in the 1996 section of the film along with the wrong Channel 5 logo (2011) in the 2000 section. When Deborah Lipstadt is running, she passes a Clinton storefront (2012) also in the 2000 section.

When in the Krakow city center, the Hard Rock Cafe can be seen in the background. The events of the movie took place in the 1990s, but this particular Hard Rock Cafe didn't open until 2010.

The shot of the River Thames from the window of Penguin Books Ltd shows the newly renovated Blackfriars Station from 2012 with solar panels but the movie is set in 1996.

In several scenes of traffic set in the 1990's, more modern cars are visible.

When Deborah tells Anthony she needs a "junkyard dog", both their mouth movements do not match the dialogue when the word "dog" is said. It is dubbed.
