Brighty of the Grand Canyon

Revealing mistake: When Old Timer strikes it rich and digs his gold mine, the rock he is digging and mining is obviously not gold, just ordinary rock.

Revealing mistake: When Jake Irons kills Old Timer, and he picks up the body right after killing him, you can see Dick Foran (the actor who plays Old Timer) grab Irons' arm before Irons drags him away.

Continuity mistake: At the beginning, right after the opening credits, Old Timer picks up a gold rock. When he first picks it up, we see a close up shot of his hand holding it only an inch or so above the ground. The very next shot a second later, from the side, shows his hand holding the gold instantly a foot or so above where it was before.

Narrator: This old world has seen a lot of changes since Teddy Roosevelt's day, but his dream came true, and the Grand Canyon will stay the same, as long as there is a world. Brighty has long since left this earth, but some animals, like some men, leave a trail of glory behind them. They give their spirit to the place where they had lived, a part of the rocks and steams and the wind and the sky. Brighty's spirit lives on, forever wild, forever free.
