Continuity mistake: When one of the siege towers is rolled over the camera, you can see one of the pushers look for the camera and move to avoid it.
Continuity mistake: As El Cid enters Valencia, there is a man in a flat cap, bib and brace stood on the right just inside the gate behind the soldiers.
Revealing mistake: In the scene were Charlton Heston has just said goodbye to Sophia Loren and is about to ride off with his followers (last scene just before the set intermission in the film), you can just make out a tiny little red automobile riding through the landscape in the background.
Moutamin: And thus the Cid rode out of the gates of history into legend.
Trivia: Michael Hordern plays Charlton Heston's father in the movie. In real-life, Hordern was only 12 years older than Heston.
