Trivia

The Fugitive mistakes

Mistake Continuity: In Part 1, Kimble worried about Gerard tracing him by a match he left behind. We got a close-up when he tore the match out of the book: it was the 3rd in a row of 5. But here, as he looks at the matchbook and worries again, the close-up shows the only match missing from the book is the 5th one.

Mistake Factual error: The druggist makes a phone call by dialing only 5 digits. By this time (1963), U.S. telephone numbers were 7 digits long.

Mistake Continuity: Kimble and Marcie take shelter from a hurricane inside an abandoned house. They go straight to the kitchen to search for food. When they then enter the living room, a fire has appeared in the fireplace, even though no one was out there to build it.
