Goofs

Revealing mistakes: During the final scenes there is a flipped shot: When Ottway realizes he is in the wolf den, he turns his head from left to right and (after a cut) back to left. The left-to-right turn is a flipped version (shot from a slightly different angle) of the right-to-left turn - this is obvious from the lesion which is on his right cheek in the flipped shot while in all other scenes it is on his left cheek.
