"Mistakes" just makes me want to shout. This is a film, people. Some things just won't work on screen. The actors can't be exactly as you've pictured them, and sometimes clothes and stuff just can't be done! They are not mistakes, they are differences.
Literature and cinema are completely different things, and just because it doesn't follow the book word for word, does not mean it's wrong.
It says it in the posters themselves.
