Other mistake: After the assassination in the outside toilet, as Clint and the kid are riding away they are very close together and being shot at by the other cowboys. The scene ends with the focus on two of the cowboys standing side by side but shooting in directions about 90 degrees apart. At the range they were shooting the targets would have to be 50 metres apart, but were actually last seen side by side.
Unforgiven (1992)
1 other mistake
Directed by: Clint Eastwood
Starring: Clint Eastwood, Morgan Freeman, Gene Hackman, Richard Harris
Factual error: During the confrontation between Little Bill and English Bob outside the barber shop, all the Deputies cocked their guns - for emphasis. Then Mr. Beauchamp reaches into his bag to show that he only has books, the Deputies cock their guns again. With the rifles they have this would eject the shell that was in the barrel and cycle a new one. It doesn't.
Little Bill Daggett: I don't deserve this... To die like this. I was building a house.
Bill Munny: Deserve's got nothing to do with it.
[Aims gun.]
Little Bill Daggett: I'll see you in hell, William Munny.
Bill Munny: Yeah.
[Fires.].
Trivia: Most movie buffs probably know this, but the mighty Mr. Eastwood is allergic to horses.
Question: Does anyone remember the initial theatrical release or perhaps a Director's Cut version of Unforgiven having Little Bill's (Gene Hackman) final word being "F**k?" It was Little Bill's last word when he realised William Munny was definitely going to kill him? That's the only memory I had of the movie. I just watched it last week and Little Bill didn't say it. Am I crazy for having that memory?

Answer: Not crazy, but maybe there's a bit of the Mandela Effect at play. There's no such line in any draft of the script, and it's not in any version of the film I've seen (including theatrical). In any case, Little Bill already knows that Munny is going to kill him, hence his line, "I'll see you in hell." If there was ever any doubt in his mind what was going to happen-as he lay there staring down the barrel of a shotgun, wielded by a man who'd just murdered a roomful of people-it's certainly gone by that point.
Will was pointing a Spencer at Bill, not a shotgun.
