  • Movie Goof (revealing mistake): When Fiona is painting the windowsill in the cabin on Roan Inish, you can clearly see that the paintbrush is dry.
  • Movie Goof (crew or equipment visible): Near the end of the film, when the seals push the cradle-boat back into the sea, you can clearly see a hand at the top left corner of the frame grab the cradle and pull it.
  • Movie Goof (revealing mistake): During the storm on Roan Inish, there is a shot of the rocks holding down the roof moving quite a bit from the force of the wind. However, the rocks in the background of the cottage next door are absolutely still suggesting that the storm is completely man-made and the crew only had the wind machines on the one cottage.
