When Laura comes to pick up Richie from Mrs. Latch's we see him standing at the window, shouting "Mommy. Mommy.", with both hands touching the glass at the same level. When the old Richard remembers the scene a bit later into the movie, Richie has one hand high up and the other one down, while his voice sounds the same. [One of the scenes is Laura's recollection, the other is Richard's. It's likely they will be slightly different.]

The first time Meryl Streep visits Ed Harris' apartment, her necklace disappears and reappears throughout the scene. [Meryl Streep is also wearing a scarf in that scene. When the necklace appears to be missing, it is behind the scarf. You can still see the chain.]
When Laura leaves after dropping Richie at Mrs. Latch's she is seen driving in her car for quite a while. When the camera cuts to Richie running after her she is still much closer than she should be. [Mrs Latch's house is on a corner. Laura turns the corner in front of the house as she drives away. You can see in the background, through the windows of the car, that she's still relatively close to the boy as she makes this turn. He breaks away from Mrs Latch just as Laura completes the turn, making her still quite close to the house.]

In the beginning of the movie, in the scene where Virginia Woolf is going to the river, she puts a rock in a pocket of her coat. But when she walks into the river, her coat actually floats. [When she walks into the river only the lower part of the coat below the pocket floats.]
Right at the beginning of the film, when Woolf drowns herself and her body is seen floating underwater there is a shot of her shoeless. A second later her shoes are back on again, so she can 'poetically' lose them as she's dragged by the river's waters. [When she is seen floating in the water she still has her right shoe on, the one she loses in the next shot.]
In the middle of the movie, Mr Woolf enters the house only to find that Virginia has gone out. He removes his boots upon entering, but they are still on his feet when he runs out the door. [At the place where he takes off the boots we see already the regular shoes he is wearing in the house and when he leaves. We just don't see him putting them on, but there is no reason why he shouldn't have.]
In the scene where Virginia and Leonard are at the Richmond train station, Leonard's tie keeps changing position during the scene. The entire time he's standing talking to Virginia, his tie goes from skewed to the right side to being straight, and back and forth. The button second from the top on his shirt is also undone. When the two are sitting on the bench at the end of the scene, his tie is straight and the previously undone button is now buttoned. [I can't see a real problem with Leonard's tie. The knot sits firmly in the middle, only the tie itself shifts a little to the left off and on, which doesn't really qualify as a mistake. And when they sit on the bench the collar is unbuttoned as before.]
In the scene where Julianne Moore picks up her son from the babysitter's house toward the end of the movie, the boy looks like he is sitting in the backseat. A couple of seconds later we notice he is in the front seat. [In all shots on the way back Richie is seen sitting in the front seat.]
