Actors not sweeping correctly when somebody broke a glass or somebody's ashes were spilled on the floor or something like that is infuriating hahha.

They're always having some serious conversation with heavy relationship complications, but whoever has the broom is literally tapping at the mess on the floor because they know that the production crew is going to clean it up for them after the shoot, so they, the ac-tors, don't have to actually sweep the mess into the dustbin.

I f****** hate that.

or get interrupted right when they’re getting to the important bit

The worst part of the interruptions is that they tend to be something that doesn't keep the person from just finishing the last few words of their sentence, and if it does they could just finish the conversation like 3 minutes later. But no, the moment is apparently ruined and they can't just accept a short delay to clear up something.

Even worse is when they say they can explain or that it isn't what is looks like over and over and explaining it would take fewer words.

Movie wife: "You are cheating on me!"

Movie: "It isn't what you think, I can explain! Come back honey, I love you! I can explain!"

Real life: "This is my sister who is hiding from her abusive husband."
