True Grit

Audio problem: During the second camp fire scene at night (after the trio have looked in the cave/railway) Mattie finishes talking but in a wide angle shot the character can still be seen moving her mouth but now without any sound.

Continuity mistake: When Mattie crossed the river on horseback, she was submerged to her chin. When she exits the water on her horse, her clothes, gear, boots and hair braids should have dripping wet. They appeared dry. When the ranger pulled her off her horse onto the ground, her wet clothes would have caused the dry dirt to cake on her like mud.
