Visible crew/equipment: After they leave the commune Billy and Wyatt come to a small town. A band is marching, and in the tuba you see a nice refelection of the camera man. (00:41:20)
Easy Rider (1969)
1 visible crew/equipment mistake - chronological order
Directed by: Dennis Hopper
Starring: Jack Nicholson, Dennis Hopper, Peter Fonda, Antonio Mendoza, Phil Spector
Continuity mistake: In the early part when Peter Fonda and Dennis Hopper are getting their choppers ready, the film clip was reversed. You can tell because the American flag on Fonda's jacket has the stars on the right shoulder, not the left like the rest of the movie. (00:06:10)
Billy: You must be some important dude, man. Like, that treatment.
George Hanson: Dude? What does he mean, dude? Dude ranch?
Billy: Dude.
Captain America: Hell no. Dude means - nice guy, you know. Dude means: regular sort of person.
George Hanson: Well, you boys don't look like you're from this part of the country.
Trivia: Originally Dennis Hopper didn't want Jack Nicholson in Easy Rider.
Question: What kind of dirt bikes are they riding in the opening scene of Easy Rider? Is it Harley?
