Plot hole: Guns were prohibited in the town of Big Whiskey. But in the final scene, Little Bill tells the Greeley's patrons to take out their guns and shoot Will Munny once Munny fires the last round in his rifle. A patron is even seen holding a gun after Munny shoots Little Bill and three of the deputies. According to the town ordinance, only Little Bill and the Sheriff Deputies would have had guns in that saloon, and they would not have had to be told. (01:57:00)
Unforgiven (1992)
1 plot hole - chronological order
Directed by: Clint Eastwood
Starring: Clint Eastwood, Morgan Freeman, Gene Hackman, Richard Harris
Revealing mistake: In the jail scene, Gene Hackman is reading from a book. When he turns the book too far towards the camera you catch a glimpse of his lines on brighter white paper attached inside the book.
Bill Munny: You better bury Ned right, and don't go cuttin' up... Nor otherwise harm no whores, or I'll come back and kill every one of you sons-a-bitches.
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.
