Jim Craig: There are a dozen good brood mares in that mob. I'll be back for them... and for whatever else is mine.
Jessica Harrison: If I'd wanted your help, mate, I would've asked for it.
Jim Craig: I think they're trying to make a butler out of me.
Jessica Harrison: They're trying to make a lady out of me.
Jim Craig: Well, they won't have no luck.
Jessica Harrison: Thank you very much.
Jim Craig: Now hold on, I didn't mean.
Jessica Harrison: I don't suppose they'll have any luck making a gentleman out of you, either.
Jim Craig: I'm not hiding beneath the skirts of a bunch of women.
Spur: I haven't had this much feminine attention in years.
Spur: Don't throw effort out to foolishness.
Continuity mistake: When Jessica has gone over the cliff in the dark we can see that she is wet, dirty and her hair is plastered to her head and is under her collar. The shot changes to show how precarious her place is on the side of the cliff. However, in this shot, the stuntperson's hair is quite dry and over the collar. Also noticeable is the change in shape of the rock. When she falls at night, she falls onto a very flat and rock - in the morning, it is a different shape entirely.
Trivia: After all the men have gone off in search of the horse, Spur is left behind at Harrison's homestead to flirt with Mrs. Bailey. He playfully chases her around the kitchen table and in so doing passes a platter of chicken. Without pausing, Spur sweeps down, grabs a chunk and takes a ravenous bite, then continues his lap around the table. As he approaches the camera on the near side, he starts to speak and a small chunk of chicken is shot from his mouth directly in to his up swinging hand. He then places his hand on the table to deposit the chunk of chicken.
