When George opens the book of "collected poems" he gave his son as a birthday present, the visible pages are clearly prose, not poetry.
The seven kitten births from under the stove described by Grace do not match up with the kittens in the basket or later on as teen-aged adult cats.
Grace describes kitties just born as "One's Black, One's White, One's Brown." The camera shows: 1-Bright Orange, 3-white with stripes and dots, three grays. one gray with BLACK stripes on back. No Solid Black cats)
A SOLID black cat is in the kitchen , plate of milk scene which contradicted the movie shot of the kittens where there were no black cats.
The black cat disappears for the BLACK stripe, dark gray cat inside the Den Beach House scene.
In short, the filmed newborns in the basket did not jibe with the adult cat in two critical scenes.

It's not clear what years this "story of my wife" is taking place, but it's framed as taking place in the past. The most readable calendar in the first summer scene shows July 4th on a Friday. That is consistent with 1952, but that month was six months in the future from the film's release date. Also, the calendar for a winter month seen in the kitchen at the start of the film is not correct for any winter month of 1951-52.
The just-born kittens are seen in the basket by the stove, bathed, dried, and looking quite unlike the actual wet/moist, messy placenta-covered real births.
In short, cat baby births are messy not Immaculately clean as seen in the basket.

At Christmas, Anna (mom) turns to Teenie who, before opening presents, wants to sing "Good King Wenceslas". However, Betsy Drake (Anna Rose) turns too early before George Winslow (Teenie) cues her. He holds her hand, but he never jerks nor shakes her to get her attention. She turns as if psychic or rushed too early before Winslow was to give his line.
When they go to their beach house in the open-top car with the dog barely hanging on the back of the car, somehow at least two cats make the trip.
One black stripes down the back cat is on the couch in the den where they play table tennis. Outside, another cat sits on the porch railing.
How the cats get to the beach is never logically explained.

When kids (supposedly) gleefully slide down banister on Christmas morning, the child actress playing Trot (Gay Gordon) is clearly not enjoying herself and appears to be worried about falling off.
