Visible crew/equipment: When Woodward has Paris draped over his horse, he's leading the horse back to the prison and you can see the square piece of black equipment they added to the foot rest of the saddle, that the stuntman is holding on to so he doesn't fall off the horse. When Woodward arrives at the prison, it's gone.
There Was a Crooked Man... (1970)
1 visible crew/equipment mistake
Directed by: Joseph L. Mankiewicz
Starring: Kirk Douglas, Henry Fonda, Warren Oates, Hume Cronyn
Continuity mistake: When Paris is offering all the other prisoners half of his hidden money for a way to escape, he lays down in his bed with his cigar in his mouth and his arms at his side. The camera angle changes to a wide shot of the holding cell and the cigar is now in his right hand near the edge of the bed.
Cyrus McNutt: They're killing me by inches, Dudley.
Dudley Whinner: You'll outlive us all. You got a lot of inches.
