The Nutcracker (1995)

Continuity mistake: After Fritz breaks Nutcracker's teeth, Marie removes the ribbon bow from her waist and wraps the ribbon around Nutcracker's mouth. When Marie walks to the cabinet we see the back of her dress minus the bow as it should be, but when Marie walks toward the clock the bow returns to the back of her dress. It then vanishes and reappears in following shots.
