You learn something every day, she said, maybe your grandmother. In any case, it is a very wise phrase, and it makes evident the fact that living day to day we can find learning in any place, often in the most unexpected, such as in the tobacconist, the bar, or the Internet.
But where you should already know that you are going to learn things, is here. Following our didactic dynamic from other times, like the time we taught you what pareidolia was or when we gave you the express WhatsApp sticker course, today at Cabroworld we come to teach you a new concept: the matching error.
The failure of raccord or cinematographic continuity is a relationship failure between two different shots of the same recording, in which the illusion of the sequence is broken. Or, summarizing the Spanish, a rabbit. Well today we bring you a good collection. Let's go there.
1-Just a dream
As you can see, the tie of the character played by Leonardo Dicaprio changes color although in the film it is treated on all three occasions on the same working day.
2-Sweeney Todd
In this scene, the boy eagerly eats a bun, but in the next sequence he is almost whole. Food is one of the most common problems when shooting a movie, since once you eat something, you can no longer eat it (you're welcome to reveal this secret of biology).
3-The Grand Budapest Hotel
When the concierge of the Budapest played by Ralph Fiennes takes the paper in his hands, he has a folded edge. When the camera focuses on it, the paper doesn't have a single wrinkle.
4-Edge of tomorrow
One of the inconveniences of recording on different days is having to review each and every one of the details, lest there be a button unbuttoned on the previous day of recording that is not today.
5-Knockin' on Heaven's Door
But an even more serious flaw is that from shot to shot the glasses of this mobster become reflective and the filming crew is seen in the reflection.
6-Wanted
Angelina Jolie's character's hair changes from loose to tied in a ponytail from shot to shot.
7- Fight Club
Security cameras were an emerging technology, but from there to recording themselves there is a long way.
8- Fight Club (again)
In this scene, Edward Norton is seen slightly changed. And it's perfectly normal, since it's not about him but about his action double.
9-Romeo + Juliet
Leo's shirt magically buttons up from shot to shot. Buttons are clearly the worst enemies of a film crew.
10-Batman Returns
From shot to shot, the black makeup disappears from Michael Keaton's face. Creepy.
11-Requiem for a Dream
This is not a continuity fault but a fault to dry. In this shot you can see reflected in the mirror the corset that the actress used to look fatter.
12 -Web of Lies
The cup changes in the same sip, from one plane to another. really scary.
13-Interstellar
In this scene, Matthew McCounaghey's character's daughter's necklace switches between above and below the shirt.
14- Drive
