When John looks outside at Harry at the gate, the angle of the streetlight next to him would not throw the shadow into the house, but instead onto the ground in front of him. 104538 After Harry Powell disappears from in front of Ms. Cooper's yard, a barn owl swoops down on a rabbit. We can hear the owl's wings flap even though barn owls make no noise when they fly. 104536 On the honeymoon night, when Willa approaches to the bed, Harry stands up and lights the lamp above in front of him. Between shots the lamp changes position.
