Deliberate mistake: The tanks used in the film are German "Leopards", never used by the US army.
Buffalo Soldiers (2001)
1 deliberate mistake - chronological order
Directed by: Gregor Jordan
Starring: Ed Harris, Joaquin Phoenix, Anna Paquin, Scott Glenn
Continuity mistake: Just after Knoll has been beaten up we see Elwood sitting next to him. As Elwood switches on the light, we see that the left side of Knoll's face is covered in blood. After Elwood applies the bandage, the blood on his face has changed with much less blood on the left side. The blood was never wiped off.
Colonel Berman: What is this? What have we here?
Ray Elwood: Just some requisitions, sir.
Colonel Berman: One thousand gallons of Mop and Glow... my God, do we really need that much?
Ray Elwood: Well, cleanliness is next to godliness.
Trivia: Joaquin Phoenix (Elwood) really is afraid of heights, so it took quite a bit of coaxing to get him to jump off the diving board in the pool scene. They wouldn't let him down after he climbed up, so he was forced to jump.
Question: How is it, Colonel Berman never suspects Elwood is having an affair with his wife?
