Continuity mistake: Close-up interior shots show that Gator's brown Ford has a Hurst floor-shifter and manual transmission. But when he arrives at his parent's home, he very obviously puts the column-mounted automatic shifter into 'Park'. (00:17:10)
White Lightning (1973)
Directed by: Joseph Sargent
Starring: Burt Reynolds, Ned Beatty, Bo Hopkins, Jennifer Billingsley
Continuity mistake: During the first moonshine run chase, and after dealing with the passing train, Gator's car alternatively does and does not have the back glass installed. This is most noticeable while in the lumber yard and afterwards. It isn't lost or damaged during the chase. It's just there, or not, at random. (00:40:50)
Continuity mistake: When Gator parks his car in front of the courthouse, it is between the white painted lines on the ground. But when he returns to the car to show its engine, it is straddling the line and very crooked. (00:29:30 - 00:32:30)
Gator McKlusky: Only two things in the world I'm scared of.
Sheriff Connors: Only scared of two things, what's that?
Gator McKlusky: Women and the police.
Vinnie Carruthers: What happened to you?
Gator McKlusky: I was tryin' to save these two buddies of mine from getting knocked up by a homosexual.
Vinnie Carruthers: Oh, praise god.
Gator McKlusky: You two are more fun than going to an all-night dentist.
