Goofs

When the new safe for the bank arrives Uncle Willie McLeod says it's "built like a battleship." The story takes place in 1863. The term "battleship" did not come into wide use until the late 1880s.

When Uncle Willie goes to the bank to confront Clanton and Lester, his hat is back to front in close up, but switches back the right way in long shots.

Share this

Uncle Willie carries the bag of gold in his right hand to give to the head of the bandits, Jack Lester; when the bandits initially confront him he is still holding the bag of gold in his right hand. Suddenly, Uncle Willie is hiding the gold under his left arm beneath his jacket, the same place he had put it back in the bank when it was handed to him.
