Other mistake: The Mustangs in the pen at the end are "wild" Mustangs taken from the Indians. When they are released from the pen, the camera shows them running. The sun shined on some of their hooves and they are shod (wearing horse shoes). Indians don't shoe their horses. They would not have shoes if they were truly wild or if taken from the Indians and there were too many in the pen to assume that the soldiers would have shooed them.
Hidalgo (2004)
1 other mistake - chronological order
Directed by: Joe Johnston
Starring: Viggo Mortensen, Omar Sharif, Louise Lombard, Zuleikha Robinson
Continuity mistake: Near the end of the race, Hidalgo collapses and there is blood in his nose. Then, when Hidalgo has gotten up and is running full out towards the finish line, there is no blood there at all. In the next shot, there is a pinkish trickle of blood that goes about to Hidalgo's chin.
Frank T. Hopkins: Get out of here mister. Leave me be.
Yusef: This is not possible...I was charged with the crime of stealing milk. As punishment I have been assigned to the American and his horse.
Frank T. Hopkins: You're working for me?
Yusef: It was this or be removed of my left hand. The future will tell if I have chosen poorly.
Trivia: Viggo Mortensen liked the horse that was used in the movie so much that he bought it.
