Revealing mistake: When Jordan and Jett go into the liquor storage room for Jordan to teach Jett a lesson for beating up Jordie, Jordan instead throws a large wine basket at the shelves of wine/alcohol. The shelves start to fall before the basket even hits them. (02:44:55)
Giant (1956)
1 revealing mistake - chronological order
Directed by: George Stevens
Starring: Rock Hudson, Elizabeth Taylor, Carroll Baker, James Dean
Factual error: When the boy is crying because he's made to ride a pony, the Texas flag is made wrong. The top star point is toward the red stripe instead of the white strip as it should be. In other scenes the flag is flown upside down - the white stripe should be on top.
Bick Benedict: Just remember, one of these days, that bourbon's gonna kill you.
Uncle Bawley: Okay, it'll be me or it. One of us has gotta go.
Trivia: Although Carroll Baker plays Elizabeth Taylor's daughter in the movie, she was actually a year older than Taylor.
