I've tried to spot the two errors you talked about here as they are both mentioned on the director's commentary. Although I see the smoke, I can't see how it can be assumed to be a car. It doesn't seem to be moving. To me it looks like someone just burning leaves or something.<P>The bandage is there on Christopher Lee's hand, but even with freeze frame, it is extremely difficult to see.<P>It was funny, just this morning on the news, they were talking about a website that records all these 'mistakes' and mentioned how many LoTR has and then mentioned the one about Bag End's door having the knob in the centre of the door on the outside, but it is to one side on the inside. This is typical of 90% of the mistakes mentioned in this thread as it certainly is not a mistake. This represents the practicality of making a door work. The door is latched at the edge of the door, so some sort of lever mechanism must extend from the knob in the centre to the latch on the edge. Putting the latch towards one side on the inside is the only way to make a door that would be practical to open. Imagine trying to pull open that big heavy door from a knob in the middle. It isn't practical. What they did was stayed true to the discription of Tolkien while at the same time making a door that actually works.<P>With a smidge of thought, at least three-quarters of the so called mistakes on this thread can be dealt with.<P>H.C.
