Character mistake: Gene Wilder as the rabbi leaves the Torah on the floor of the porch of the home of the synagogue president. A rabbi would never put a Torah on the ground.

The Frisco Kid (1979)
1 character mistake
Directed by: Robert Aldrich
Starring: Harrison Ford, Gene Wilder, Ramon Bieri, Val Bisoglio
Audio problem: The Rabbi's horse is bucking in reaction to the rattlesnake, and all the while the Rabbi is yelling in Yiddish - but his mouth is not moving.
Question: When Avram is departing on his horse after meeting Tommy, Tommy asks him if he speaks any Mexican. Abram, who doesn't, is puzzled by the question and asks why...to which Tommy responds "Just curious." I've always assumed that Tommy was mocking him cause he was unknowingly riding south and headed for Mexico instead of West towards San Francisco. Am I right?
