The Long, Long Trailer

Continuity mistake: In the part where Tacy and Nicky have just had their big fight and Tacy is sleeping on the couch; you hear all of the train and gun sounds and Tacy jumps up to run to the bedroom shouting, "Nicky! Nicky!" she accidentally slips in a "Ricky". So her shout sounds like this: "Nicky! Ricky! Nicky! Nicky!"

Continuity mistake: Two different cars are used; a smaller Mercury and a larger more powerful Lincoln in the hill scenes - both convertibles. Side trim gives it away too.

Continuity mistake: After Tacy and Nicky have gone to Tacy's family with the long, long trailer, Nicky tries to park the thing in the family's driveway, breaking things and knocking things over. At one point, Tacy's uncle yells to Nicky - but he distinctly calls him "Ricky."

Continuity mistake: In the close-up shots where Tacy is driving and fighting with Nicky, the sideview mirror is tilted up against the windshield to accommodate the camera angle. However, in the distance shots, the sideview mirror is tilted down and out to where it should be for safe driving. Moments later, in the closeups of the park and the filling station, the mirror is again tilted up against the windshield.

Continuity mistake: When Nicky leaves the trailer the night before the long haul up the mountain, he is wearing a brown leather jacket. When he returns the next morning, as Stacy is supposedly getting rid of all the rocks, jams, etc., he is wearing a blue jacket.

Visible crew/equipment: When the long, long trailer drives by, on its way up the steep, steep mountain, you can easily seen a camera man reflected in the trailer. (00:40:22)
