Corrected entry: In the scene in the church where Harry needs information from a priest, he throws him into a confessional so hard that the wall separates revealing how flimsy it is. (01:22:55)
The Enforcer (1976)
1 corrected entry
Directed by: James Fargo
Starring: Clint Eastwood, Bradford Dillman, Harry Guardino, Tyne Daly
Continuity mistake: When the fireboat brings Eastwood and Daly out to Alcatraz, Eastwood uses the fire hose against a bad guy in a tower. As Eastwood prepares his hose attack, there are close up shots showing Eastwood turning the hose mount from his right to left, and long shots showing Eastwood turning the hose mount from his left to right.
Kate Moore: That's a conspiracy under title 7, Section 182, Paragraph 1 of the California Penal Code. A conspiracy to commit a misdemeanor is in fact a felony, and according to People vs Basso.
Trivia: In the film two hoods are called "Lalo" and "Buchinski". "Lalo" is a reference to Lalo Schifrin, composer of the other "Dirty Harry" movie soundtracks. "Buchinski" was the real last name of the actor Charles Bronson.

Correction: It's not the wall that separates. The inside of the confessional was lined with soundproofing tiles, like those you'd see on a ceiling. It's the tiles that move, which would happen in real life. It's the construction style of how they're placed that causes this, just like how easy it it to push a some ceiling tiles up.
