Plot hole: When McKenna is fighting Colorado at the end, McKenna does not go for Colorado's revolver. He cannot have known the bullets had been tampered with, since that information was only known to Colorado and Hachita. Perhaps he deduced it when Colorado didn't draw his gun. (01:56:00)

Continuity mistake: In the scene at The Yellow River where the Indians are chasing Gregory Peck and the gang of Omar Sharif on their way to the draft, you can see the same sequence with some trees (filmed with the camera holding up) twice within a second. (01:26:15)

Question: I thought sunglasses weren't invented until the late 1920s?

Answer: Have to say, I have not seen movie, but to answer your question, one of the earliest surviving depictions of a person wearing sunglasses is of the scientist Antoine Lavoisier in 1772.
