Corrected entry: Velvet looks out the window, and says she's dreaming, because she sees the whole village bringing her the horse. Her mother then looks out the window and comfirms that they are indeed bringing the horse to her, but how does her mother know this? Every kid in their family had a lottery ticket for the horse raffle.
National Velvet (1944)
1 corrected entry
Directed by: Clarence Brown
Starring: Mickey Rooney, Elizabeth Taylor, Donald Crisp, Anne Revere
Continuity mistake: When Velvet and her mother are sitting and talking in the attic, her mother pours some gold coins into Velvet's lap. Velvet is sitting back on her feet, but a few seconds later, she raises up on her knees to hug her mother. The coins should go spilling everywhere, but we never see or hear them.
Mi Taylor: Some day you'll learn that greatness is only the seizing of opportunity - clutching with your bare hands 'til the knuckles show white.

Correction: If you listen closely, I think you can hear the people bringing the Pie say "Velvet." Also, the other Brown children bought a ticket to increase Velvet's chances of winning. The Pie was always going to be for her regardless of who had the winning ticket.
