1 continuity mistake
Directed by: Robert Day
Starring: Sam Elliott, Kate Capshaw, Tom Conti, Kenny Morrison
Genres: Western
Factual error: When Red prepares to sneak into the camp, Doc Shabbit says if they hear a shot it will mean that he "bought the farm". However, this phrase didn't come into use until well into the 20th Century, when the US Military began paying death benefits. That insurance was enough to pay the mortgage or "buy the farm".
Con Vallian: You're going to have a choice. Them or me.
Question: As Duncan prepares to kill Doc Shabbit, it sounds like Doc says it's hard to kill a man looking him in the eye, isn't it Bill? His name is Duncan not Bill, or am I mis-hearing it?
Answer: He says "ain't it, pilgrim?"
