King Kong (1933)

Revealing mistake: After King Kong destroys the train track of the oncoming train, in the POV shot directly behind the train operator while he watches Kong rise from the broken track, the small model's support control bar is visible at the right as it moves up and down. The next shot is a close-up of the shocked motorman, and after he attempts to stop the train, there's another shot facing Kong with the control bar visible for a moment. (01:31:50)

Visible crew/equipment: As the villagers are running away from Kong, when the mother rescues the young child, in the next shot look to the back right side of the screen. A member of this movie's production crew steps into the shot, stands there watching as the movie extras are running, and the shot cuts away. (01:17:29)

Continuity mistake: Just before Kong is gassed and captured, he picks up someone and bites his head. In a close up, he has them by the legs, then in the long shot he is biting their head. (01:22:00)

Trivia: King Kong's roar was made from the roars of a lion and a tiger put together and played backward.

Trivia: The giant wall on Skull Island was first used in the film King of Kings, and its final screen performance was in Gone with the Wind. Did you ever wonder what that giant wall of flame was?

Trivia: Director Merian C. Cooper and co-director/producer E.B. Schoedsack have cameos in close-ups of the biplanes that attack Kong at the end of the film.

Carl Denham: Kong! The eighth wonder of the world!

Carl Denham: It was beauty killed the beast.

Question: Closely connected questions relating to Kong's massive size and weight: How did the crew "lift" him from the raft into the ship? Where did they keep him in the ship? (there doesn't seem to be a hold big enough) How did they feed him for the several weeks it took to get to New York? And lastly, how did they get him from the ship to the theater?
