Walking Tall (1973)
1 continuity mistake
Directed by: Phil Karlson
Starring: Joe Don Baker, Elizabeth Hartman, Leif Garrett, Dawn Lyn
Revealing mistake: When the bad sheriff tries to run Buford Pusser over, he drives off the road and the car explodes for no reason. It's in the air when it explodes, there's no way it could have exploded without hitting the ground.
Buford: That fight yesterday was for real... Obra could have been killed, and all you do is levy a 10 dollar fine.
Judge R.W. Clarke: My prerogative... You run the streets, I run the courts.
Buford: I bring em in and you let em go. It all becomes a big joke, and I don't care to trade lives for laughs... From now on I want maximum penalties.
