The Lords of Flatbush mistake picture

Continuity mistake: When Chico phones Jane for a date, it cuts to both of them riding on the motorcycle. In these shots, Jane's hair is quite long and well past her shoulders, but when they arrive at Coney Island, Jane's hair is much shorter, not even reaching her shoulders. This happens again, when Chico picks up Jane at her house with the "borrowed" Packard, the back of Jane's hair is long, but when they get to the drive-in her hair is shorter. (00:18:25)
