The Four Feathers

Continuity mistake: When Harry's guide is captured by the British troops, they flog him. In the very next scene his back shows no evidence of him ever being whipped.

Continuity mistake: There is a scene in which Heath Ledger/Harry is shown in prison and his teeth look absolutely horrible, brown stained and filthy. Several scenes later he is shown fighting with the prison guard after his escape and his teeth look sparkling white and beautiful.

Continuity mistake: In the scene just after the Mahdi forces are 'retreating,' a drummer boy drums the square to open to let the skirmishers out. If you look behind the drummer boy however there seems to be a fight going on behind him although the Mahdi forces have retreated.

Abou Fatma: I found you half dead crossing the desert alone and you say you are afraid?

Harry Faversham: When something like this happens you are lost. You don't know who you are anymore and what you're capable of. Unless I do something this is always how people will remember me. A feather. And that is how I will always see myself: a coward. All I know is that I can't live with myself like this.

William Trench: Don't worry, Vicar. They're only women. They won't bite.
