Revealing mistake: When Dustin Hoffman dies at the end of the film, if you look closely at his chest you can see him breathing.
Revealing mistake: At the end on the bus ride to Miami, when Ratso Rizzo dies and Joe Buck uses his hand to close Ratso's eyes, Ratso's left eye flinches.
Continuity mistake: When Joe is walking in NY for the first time, his hat goes from being pushed on the back of his head to on top several times.
Cass: You were gonna ask me for money? Who the hell do you think you're dealing with, some old slut on 42nd Street? In case you didn't happen to notice it, ya big Texas longhorn bull, I'm one helluva gorgeous chick.
Trivia: The John Voight role was originally offered to Elvis Presley. Unbelievably ,as it would surely have kick started The King's movie comeback, Col. Parker, without consulting Elvis, turned the role down.
Answer: Probably not. The man was a masochist who derived sexual pleasure from being physically abused. Joe apparently crammed the phone receiver into the man's mouth and left, unknown if he died from it or not.
