Continuity mistake: When Bob Conway meets with the High Lama, there is a pillar candle atop a 2 ft tall ornate candle holder, on the table beside the Shangri-La founder. The style of the tall candle holder is actually completely different between the High Lama's side shots and close-up; the height of the wide candle greatly differs as well.
