Revealing mistake: After the swarm of locusts passes, Frank takes one and eats half of it. He then offers the other half to Hidalgo, but the horse knocks it out of his fingers and proceeds to eat something else hidden in his hand - presumably the real treat used to entice him.
Hidalgo (2004)
1 revealing mistake
Directed by: Joe Johnston
Starring: Viggo Mortensen, Omar Sharif, Louise Lombard, Zuleikha Robinson
Continuity mistake: In the final leg of the race, after Frank has taken the saddle off of Hidalgo, there are many shots of Frank riding Hidalgo. In one of the slightly wider shots that shows Frank, Hidalgo's back, and Hidalgo's neck, you can see the back of an English saddle under Frank's butt, even though he's supposed to be riding bareback.
Frank T. Hopkins: Nobody hurts my horse.
Trivia: Viggo Mortensen liked the horse that was used in the movie so much that he bought it.
