Directed by: Howard Hawks
Starring: John Wayne, Dean Martin, Angie Dickinson, Ricky Nelson
Revealing mistake: The bullet hole gouge in the window frame near Ricky Nelson and the outward facing splinters at the bullet hole in the door frame near John Wayne indicate exit holes.
Revealing mistake: After leaving the poker game, Feathers goes upstairs to her room followed by the sheriff. When she enters the darkened room she turns up a lamp. Her shadow is OK but the sheriff is standing just inside the door and his shadow is too far to his left.
Continuity mistake: In the film's climax, Ricky Nelson is shooting out a window. A bullet hits on the frame and gouges the wood. In the next camera shot of Ricky the gouge is gone and the following shot, it is back.
Feathers: How does a... how does a man get to be a sheriff?
John T. Chance: Gets lazy. Gets tired of selling his gun all over. Decides to sell it in one place.
Feathers: I'd say you made a poor sale.
John T. Chance: A lot of people around here'll agree with you.
Feathers: But... it's still a sale and it's too late to back out.
