While “Dazed and Confused“ is a well-regarded film, like any production, it may have some minor mistakes or inconsistencies. Here are a few notable ones:
1. Anachronistic Music: The film is set in 1976, but some of the songs featured on the soundtrack were released after that year. For example, “Slow Ride“ by Foghat, which is prominently featured, was released in 1975.
2. Changing Beer Labels: In the scene where the characters are drinking beer in the field, the beer bottles have changing labels between shots. This is likely due to the use of multiple takes and different bottles being used.
3. Continuity Errors: There are occasional continuity errors, such as characters holding a cigarette in one shot and then not having one in the next, or items shifting positions between cuts.
4. Visible Boom Microphone: In a few scenes, the boom microphone is briefly visible at the top of the frame, usually in wider shots.
