The Long Riders picture

Continuity mistake: When Cole and the halfbreed duel with knives, the fabric they hold in their mouths as a tether keeps flipping over, meaning the end of the cloth hangs out the left side of the mouth, then the right, and left again - several times for both actors - even tho the fight is continuous and they make no moves that would change this.

Winchester '73 picture

Continuity mistake: During the battle with the Indians we see two braves that get killed, both wear distinct costumes that only they have - one brave wears a simple costume consisting of just a breechcloth and single feather. Both braves get shot in the heart and fall off their horses and die at the same time. We then see these same two braves die repeatedly throughout the battle, just filmed from different angles. When the Indians ride off there are only two bodies that match these braves' costumes on the ground.

Annie Get Your Gun picture

Continuity mistake: When Annie finishes her song about "doin' what comes naturally," she grabs her rifle and uses the butt to shoo the children towards the house.

The shot changes to a longer shot of the same view and the man is suddenly 5 or 6 feet further away, where the gun would no longer reach him.
