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 - chronological order
Directed by: Joe Johnston
Starring: Viggo Mortensen, Omar Sharif, Louise Lombard, Zuleikha Robinson
Factual error: The race ends at Damascus, which is nowhere near the ocean, yet is placed on the seacoast.
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.
