Continuity: When Luz is talking to Jet on the phone for the first time, from the front she's fiddling with the phone cord with her left hand. When it cuts to the reverse, however, her hand is flat on the desk.

Factual error: In the scene when the boy is crying because he's made to ride a pony, the Texas flag is made wrong. The top star point is toward the red stripe instead of the white strip as it should be. In other scenes the flag is flown upside down - the white stripe should be on top.

Factual error: In the scene where Angel (Sal Mineo) is being laid to rest, the Honor Guard folds the flag wrong, they do not tuck the end of flag inside.
