3:10 to Yuma (2007)

Corrected entry: The movie is set circa 1868 (e.g. mention of three years passing since being wounded in the Civil War), but a cash register is seen in the saloon. The first cash register wasn't introduced until 1879, and the "traditional" style seen in the saloon wasn't available until years after that. Source taken from http://www.moah.org/exhibits/archives/kaching.html.

Correction: Actually, the movie is set in 1884. Dans remark about "three years of hell" refers to the amount of time they have spent in Arizona trying to get the ranch to turn a profit, not how long it's been since he lost his leg. See http://uk.imdb.com/title/tt0381849/faq for more details.

Other mistake: In the bedroom scene before Dan Evans leaves his family, there are two petroleum lamps attached to the wall and lit up although there is still daylight. Given their financial distress, they would have never done anything like this. Moreover, the light is not flickering because the film crew used light bulbs.

Question: McElroy is gutshot at close range. Operated on w/ rusty pliers, no drugs. Minutes later he walks around, and next day seems fine as he rides in a posse. Totally impossible! Shouldn't he be dead?

Answer: Obviously. But to quote Josephus, movies is magic.
