Visible crew/equipment: When the long, long trailer drives by, on its way up the steep, steep mountain, you can easily seen a camera man reflected in the trailer. (00:40:22)
The Long, Long Trailer (1953)
Directed by: Vincente Minnelli
Starring: Lucille Ball, Keenan Wynn, Marjorie Main, Desi Arnaz
Continuity mistake: In the part where Tacy and Nicky have just had their big fight and Tacy is sleeping on the couch; you hear all of the train and gun sounds and Tacy jumps up to run to the bedroom shouting, "Nicky! Nicky!" she accidentally slips in a "Ricky". So her shout sounds like this: "Nicky! Ricky! Nicky! Nicky!"
Continuity mistake: Two different cars are used; a smaller Mercury and a larger more powerful Lincoln in the hill scenes - both convertibles. Side trim gives it away too.
Mrs. Hittaway: What good is a trailerite if not to help out another trailerite?
Tacy: What happened?
Nicholas Collini: Oh nothing, I just cracked my skull.
Nicholas Collini: Been married long?
Mr. Tewitt: About 31 years.
Nicholas Collini: Have many fights?
Mr. Tewitt: Nope.
Nicholas Collini: Then take my advice: don't buy a trailer.
