Revealing mistake: In the scene where Cobb's mean attack Emmitt, Mal shoots one of the men in the hand. The shot pauses long enough to show that hand is quite a cheap, plastic-looking fake prop hand.
Silverado (1985)
1 revealing mistake
Directed by: Lawrence Kasdan
Starring: Kevin Costner, Danny Glover, Kevin Kline, Scott Glenn
Continuity mistake: In the gunfight scene in the street between Paden and Cobb the length and angle of the shadows of both characters and the buildings change several times from one shot to the next.
Sheriff Cobb: We'll give you a fair trial - followed by a first-class hangin'.
Question: I am sure that when I watched Silverado many years ago that Cobb's men, after capturing Emmett, used a rock or stone to break the bones in his gun hand to render him harmless. The DVD I have does not have this scene - if it ever existed.
Answer: You may be thinking of The Quick and The Dead. That happens to Russell Crowe before the final gunfight.
Answer: I first saw this film in a theater, and later on DVD and TV, and I don't recall the scene you described. If his hand had been injured that way, the injury would have lasted throughout the entire film and that was not the case. Perhaps you're confusing this with another movie.
